When Apple was still making PPC power computers they never sold in the volume that Intel based computers sell so Therefore the QA was quite a bit different than today's Mac's. The new MacBook Pro sells 20 times better than the old PowerBooks use to sell it is a numbers game. A 459.00 dollars windows computer is a throw away computer to the average computer user. As the repair would be more than the cost of a new one. So this is an expected effect of lower prices. You spend more money you will fix it instead of tossing it out for a new one.

Even my old Titanium is more reliable, just so slow. And who wants to be frustrated all the time, even if the service is great. The labor alone, to put everything on a new machine in case they give you one! What trouble! But i will keep that address Ed put down -- in case!

Qa on a larger number of machines now will yield a high failure rate. Just look at the Sales that Apple has been posting since going to Intel. _______________________________________________ MacGroup mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> http://www.math.louisville.edu/mailman/listinfo/macgroup
