Problems with Apple's 17-inch Studio Display?

Apple is being lame and refusing to admit that there is a problem with some of its 17-inch Studio Display, with few hundred people now complaining that the LCD monitors go dim inexplicably and have power lights that flash incessantly.
The thing is that most of the defects are cropping up around 18 months, which is after Studio Display's warranty has expired, giving Apple little incentive to make repairs for free. Anyway, some angry Apple customers have put together an online petition.
