battery overheating, hard-drive noise, why would it all come down to apple's fault? and once a single apple product goes wrong, the whole world talks about it, does it mean dell products are any better? i've never had a dell machine that lasts longer than 3 years(broke up physically into pieces), whereas my original powerbook g4's still working at 7-year old.

of cos all products have a certain rate of manufacture defects, but issues like this are with component suppliers and all computer makers who take their supply from them suffers, NOT JUST apple.]]>Jul 12th 2009 7:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/12/macbook-pros-with-7200rpm-hdds-getting-a-touch-too-noisy/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/12/macbook-pros-with-7200rpm-hdds-getting-a-touch-too-noisy/Jul 12th 2009 7:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/12/macbook-pros-with-7200rpm-hdds-getting-a-touch-too-noisy/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/12/macbook-pros-with-7200rpm-hdds-getting-a-touch-too-noisy/Jul 12th 2009 7:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/12/macbook-pros-with-7200rpm-hdds-getting-a-touch-too-noisy/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/12/macbook-pros-with-7200rpm-hdds-getting-a-touch-too-noisy/Jul 12th 2009 9:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/07/12/macbook-pros-with-7200rpm-hdds-getting-a-touch-too-noisy/http://www.engadget.com/2009/07/12/macbook-pros-with-7200rpm-hdds-getting-a-touch-too-noisy/

Also, since apple specifically tries to make it difficult for people to go out and build a custom mac-compatible computer, when something goes wrong with a mac laptop, it's a pretty damn big deal. You're right, dell should get a little bit of a hit for not building reliable machines, but any idiot can go out and build a windows-compatible computer. It takes a little research and knowledge to build a mac-compatible computer.

Anyways most MS hardware other than the 360 has been pretty decent, keyboards and mice and routers have all been pretty good. But what that has to do with 7200RPM hard drives being noisy is beyond me.

I think anybody who buys a Macbook Pro and ticks off the 7200RPM option box should just blame themselves for being too anal. Being surprised that a 7200RPM drive is marginally louder than a slower drive is just plain stupid...it's like getting the upgraded V8 engine in a car then whining that the engine makes loud sounds.

Everyone knows that temperatures rise in the summer and people keep their Xboxes in closed cabinets and play on them on the long hot summer days all day long so a small percentage of them experiences thermal issues. Nothing to worry about.
