I think you should consider purchasing a different computer. When I got my original 12" PB (rev c), I had to go through four of them in order to find one that didn't have a red pix…

I personally think you're a little ridiculous. I would have sent in the first MacBook with the trackpad button issue for repair and have gotten it fixed already. Driving around s…

I agree with having the system repaired. Probably would return the "whining" ones...but with the messed up trackpad button, I would have gotten it repaired under warranty. Of cou…

A loud resounding...*WRONG!* Dude. When people purchase an apple product, they are not just buying a laptop, and YOU know it. If I had any of these, I would have been completely i…

Hey, if Apple is willing to keep replacing them and PJ is willing to put that much time and effort in the pursuit of their happiness with something they purchased, then more power…

wow !! well done for not settling for faulty units, many here are weak enough to take what ever apple gives them, then flame the ones who wont put up with bad units. i am in uk an…

No, Don't let them repair it. It's a BRAND NEW computer just out of the box. It should be working great. No wonder people have started to report getting flawless Apples, you clear…

you must get number 13 today

I'm going to have to agree with mathew_m, at least to some extent. While I agree with the idea that customers shouldn't have to settle for a faulty machine, I'm starting to wonder …

Hey man, I'll drop in with everyone and say that I thought you were crazy when I saw "Well... I'm on my 12th..." but after reading that list, I'm questioning my first thoughts. I'…

I don't think you're crazy. a bit picky? yes of course, but lets be honest, who isnt? lol. I am dreadfully sorry to hear that you had such an insane string of bad rigs. it just ba…

i'm calling bullsh*t on this one. sounds like the powerbook in the toilet thing.

i wonder if they aren't giving you machines that other people have returned. even if 50% of the apple machines are faulty, the chances of getting 12 in a row is what? like 1 in 500…

That is horrible luck. I've heard of a few people having problems, but nothing like that. Almost think the same as the above poster, must be giving you the returned ones. I bought …

I more I read this the more I get annoyed. Anyone who complains about macs being priced to high.. well apple consumers are the most picky, retentive people. I PJ, I absolutely ca…

Well instead of blasting the poor fellow for having soooo many problematic MacBooks I am going to thank him instead for just being stupid. Now that he's cleared all the bad ones ou…

I find it quite amazing that you managed to get 12 Macbooks that had issues with them. Even more amazing is that you continue to purchase and return them and then create a thread …

You said that machine 10 was whining this morning.....when did you purchase Machine 11 and 12?
