It seems that 8600M GT problems aren’t plaguing only the Apple MacBook Pros, but Dell machines as well, with failures reported from both companies.

To remedy the problem, Dell has recently extended the warranty on machines with the 8600M GT by one year, giving users more leeway just in case theirs happens to fail.

Nvidia apparently doesn’t want to take this problem mainstream as they still haven’t announced all of the models that could be defective, all we know right know is that 8600M GT’s with 128MB to 512MB of ram are possible defective. A recall or something would be nice.
