The failure rate for the big Windows laptop makers is 18-19% in 3 years. I am pretty sure they've all adopted a basic component level QA process and lets the customer be the QA for the final product.

I've only dealt with Dell and Lenovo products, and their QA is all over the place...from very poor to very good on identical products.

I suspect Razer has their laptops made by Foxconn or Asus or Large_Manufacturer_X. Foxconn not only manufactures a lot of products and components for Apple, but they also make laptops for many other manufacturers. I'd not be at all surprised to learn they have the same 18-19% failure rate as the other big names since they all are born from similar processes.

There is a certain pucker factor when you roll the dice on an expensive Windows box these days that shouldn't really be there.

Apple's failure rate over the same period of time is 10%.
