Resident Apple guru

As the geekiest Mac hardware guy in the office, I've been asked by a cow-orker to have a look at his spanking new black MacBook. The wireless connection is extremly flakey. It goes from 0% to 85% packet loss, with a preferred access point. I've compared the wireless settings side by side with my own MacBook. I'm clueless on this issue. I sure hope he got decent warranty with his purchase because my best bet is the genius bar.

Update: Since installing the latest security patches, everything seems to be stabilized (of course, I tested this around midnight, when I was partly sleeping).
