Interesting problem... the people in the retail stores are pretty understanding. If you bring it in and show them they should replace it if it's under warranty. If not, back up your data and try a reinstall. Don't worry it's nothing to be afraid of.
rofl this is a common issue with mac dead screen scene, i never had that on my dell pc* time for teh old switchorama small fry, goodl uck trying to replace it when it goes haywire! i heard they charge ya big time!
i just got a macbook a very beautiful computer but i put in my speakers and the sound cable is now lodged in the headphone port and i have no sound so i sent it to apple and they said they could try to get it out but if they don't then im have to pay 600 bucks so they can put in a new logic board and if they get it out then i have to pay 100 bucks apple care sucks what a waste of 249 bucks
I used to have an AGP geforce 6800xt for my pc and it was artifacting while I was playing games, it was very similar to your problem. This, unfortunately is not something that you can remedy, you have to replace the graphics card. It mainly affected me when I was playing GTA San Andreas. If you have Windows installed, you should try playing that game. Pc and Mac hardware (if yours is an Intel Mac) is actually almost Identical.
Its gotta be a problem with Adobe Flash player, try updating the flash driver and also try using firefox or another browser. Make sure you have all the Safari updates and the flash updates cause the burton website the exact page you were looking at was completely flash based. I have 10.5 with Safari 3.0.4 and Flash 9.0 hope this helps you.
hey man i would definetely take it in to the genuis bar at Apple have em take a look (it's free just set up a date and time) also by anychance do you use a lot of 3rd party apps? if you want to try to fix this yourself either reinstall Tiger fully delete all your files and reinstall it or create another admin or account on your Mac see if that works
well, i donno whats wrong with the mac, but just a heads up, whatever camera you were using to film yourself, every once in a while it would flash black.
ok, probably wont work, but playing around with the system preferances might do something, like change any screen setting and maybe itll reset the screen display
If you've bought the computer in the last year (which from your videos in past I assume you have) than you have apple care to go get it checked out at the store.
I have had problems with mine but not this one. I personally think its a software thing. Maybe backup and reinstall tiger or just go get yourself a nice new copy of Leopard. :-)
It's probably something in the video card, however by now you probably got it fixed.

Its probably the GMA 950 causing the tearing and artifacts. Try a PRAM reset and if that doesn't help call AppleCare
