Out of interest at work here we've had four (4) new Dell Inspiron 6400 (core duo) laptops go out to our support staff and every single one has had a squealy-whine emitting from the device. The squeal is high-pitched and so very very annoying. It's a noise within minutes of listening to would give users a severe headache.
The Dell laptop gets extremely hot, very hot, so very very hot.
The screen has a silly reflective coating over it (a reflective coating so reflective it makes the macbook look like a matte finish) and to the point where the office lights make it hard to see the screen from some angles.
Why have I pointed out some faults I've encounted with a Dell laptop, seeing as they have no relation with the Apple Macbook Pro? Perhaps I will let you think about that one.
These two (2) entirely different companies with different designs, different circuit designs, differing hardware, and a totally different Operating System. Yet they are plagued with problems, some the same and some problems different.
But yet I don't see the animosity for the Dell Inspiron 6400 as the Macbook Pro. Why?
I know there are many reasons why people are up in arms re: faults with Apple goods (high expectations, perhaps rejection from Apple support, perhaps hatred?), but why the directed assult on Apple goods? I mean I've bought a my fair share of goods (and services) and many times been bitterly disappointed but you see me making whole websites against the brand/product? Nope.
On a personal note, I think a lot of people need to grow up and this includes those anti-apple people out there (yes, they exist *sigh*) who may be propagating this propaganda against Apple products/services. And those Apple-loving people who are bitching about Apple, take your complaints to them and not behind their back.
