I still can't get over the part where multiple keys just fell right off the keyboard. And you can't put them back on - the whole top case has to be replaced.

Sometimes you get a lemon - that's one thing, but this is a whole generation of machines. That seems new... Well, saying that: I had a 2006 iBook - the black one - and the battery ran so hot I still have the scar on my thigh (geek trophy!). Apple denied there was an issue with that machine, too, and the recall came way too late. So I guess it's a pattern and not a new thing, really.

Maybe the new thing is that I am actually genuinely tempted by the Surface. In 2006 there were no contenders.
