Apple admits problem, fixes it
November 19, 2009
Apple has admitted the problem and will fix your macbook air gen 1 without any cost to you whether it is in or out of warranty.
Please see the appropriate article in their support pages.
I didn’t realize that this hadn’t been posted yet, but in fact I’ve had my computer fixed for almost 2 months now and I’m glad Apple finally did the right thing, even if it took them almost 10 months to admit the problem.

I don’t think any such thing is happening. Today took the MBA to the Soho Apple store with a broken hinge that just happened after months of having a loose top. The conversation with the “Genius” went normal and then she went to discuss with her supervisor in the back and then they came out and within earshot of me I overheard “we could take it and then he looked at me and I overheard “f*** him”. She came back and said because of this ding they couldn’t fix the hinge. Really a microscopic ding. I couldn’t believe it. She said minimum 500.00 she looked like she felt bad about it. I just picked up my air and left. But you know what…..
Thanks for your page. I was about to open up my old MB Air to tinker around when I found it. Brought the thing to the local authorized repair center (Dublin, IE) and was assured the fix would be free.
