But what I'm thinking right now, having to invest in a new pc (and oh yes macs are pcs, no more no less) is one thing: why do I hear a lot about faulty hardware on Apple computers and little from other companies? The possible explanations are: a) Websites like to make Apple look bad b) Apple is screwing up a bit lately c) both
But at least one thing we must appreciate, Apple admits to have sold faulty hardware and will probably replace these parts for free. My last laptop was an HP nx7000, it had a known hardware issue, the gaphic card chip was not properly fixed on the card and would loosen a bit with high temperatures, which the laptop produced not having adequate cooling. so after 2 years my 2000 € laptop was a piece of junk and I had to get a new one. HP never admitted to having sold faulty hardware.
Some people I know would say: you see, pcs (meaning, every computer that is not an apple) are crap. But then, there's a lot of other companies out there.
I'm never going to buy an HP again, but from what i read getting an apple is as risky these days, but this might just be my subjective perception. Can anybody give me hint, which is not just saying "it aint't so, period"?

nobody wants to actually make apple look bad (except for haters maybe)
but all this comes in contrast to their politics and marketing ...
its like that prick who keeps going on about other peoples faults and wrongs when he has them too ... whats that guy called .. yeap .. a hypocrit !
i admire the design of the mac a lot but selling yourself as better then everybody else takes a hefty dose of arrogance
