Any resolution from Apple regarding vertical lines on 17" iMac?

A few months ago my iMac 17" developed a vertical line on the right hand side of the screen. This has now gone up to 5. I have read articles on the web that suggest Apple are aware that this is a hardware issue. Has anyone had this resolved?

I have a iMac with the same problem.
Until last year, Apple was offering to repair free of charge to many people who had this problem with there iMacs.
But that repair program is over.
I read that some users found out that the computers would work fine with an external screen.
I have ordered an mini DVI to HDMI adapter to see if it works with my HDTV as a external screen.
I should be getting it today or tomorrow.
If you have a screen available at home, it is wort trying since like you said, the computers are otherwise in perfect working order.
You can get an adaptor for cheap on eBay or the Apple store (more expensive!) you can also find them in computer stores.
I will post back when I have done the test with my computer.
