System is going to sleep
Having the same problem - this is my second replacement new machine. I think it's a design fault rather than a machine fault...will try AppleCare/Genius but they've closed the biggest store and so hard to get anyone to talk to. It's crap, basically. Not impressed with Apple - and I've been using their machines for 5 years!
Update (09/05/2015)
And Dan - it's the SAME problem. Tilting is the only thing that fixes it. It went away for a while with my old machine, but as this machine is basically a clone of that one, obviously my fixes didn't last for some reason.
Is this a good question?

OK, lets try this. Open your Utilities folder, launch Terminal. When the command line appears, type sudo pmset -g and press Return. ype in the administrator password when prompted and hit Return. This command queries the computer for the current setting of the Sudden Motion Sensor. The default setting is "1" (turned on). If the sensor is off the setting will be "0". Now run this: sudo pmset -a sms 0 into Terminal and pressing Return Type sudo pmset -g command to be sure that the setting returns as "0". This will turn off the Sudden Motion Sensor. See if that fixes things. Here's the Apple T/N I'm referencing: Mac notebooks: About the Sudden Motion Sensor

Thanks!
But I can't see Sudden Motion Sensor there - both machines were SSD?
Active Profiles:
Battery Power -1
AC Power -1*
Currently in use:
standbydelay 10800
standby 1
womp 1
halfdim 1
hibernatefile /var/vm/sleepimage
darkwakes 0
gpuswitch 2
networkoversleep 0
disksleep 10
sleep 0
autopoweroffdelay 14400
hibernatemode 3
autopoweroff 1
ttyskeepawake 1
displaysleep 0
acwake 0
lidwake 1
So if the Sudden Motion Sensor is activated, it shouldn't be for a SSD machine. But can't see it on the list...
