[ discussion about poor Apple quality]

Talk about product loyalty! Most of the people who laud Apple
quality have OLDER Apple products. The problem is with the NEW
product line, which have many "no name" Taiwanese components substituted
for parts that were formally labeled "Sony" (for example, the mac
two power supply.)

We have had two 3.5" floppies fail, Three HD40's fail, and a motherboard
fail on a total of three mac two's. Fortunately, most of our repairs were
under warranty.
