Apple does not always make or sell the best products. They try to innovate, and for the most part they have been very successful at innovating. But innovation carries risk and sometimes they come up short in the quality department. Remember the Cube? Was it called the Cube? The clear plastic cube cased PC with no fan that was totally silent and very chic looking? Great idea, but ultimately a failure as a product. The early iPods suffered many, many quality control problems, which lots of long-time iPod owners can attest to. I have one friend that got four iPods from Apple under warranty before he finally ended up with one that worked. Apple eventually settled a class-action lawsuit that gave lots of purchasers of iPods a big rebate on new gear.
Sure, Microsoft has more than its share of issues, and when you get down to it, MacOS v. Windows (any version) isn't a contest between equals, but the people at Apple are human and they f- up their share of stuff, too.
