1. My brother got a gateway laptop that broke 4 months after he bought it.... after best buy and gateway tossed tons of parts at it, they could not fix it. gave him his money back. (they never did figure out what the problem was).
2. a coworker's dell laptop is dead after 2 yrs. she paid $700+ for it. Now she's buying another one (she told me she wants a mac but can't afford one).
3. a person I do pc/mac work for had a hp laptop where after a year or so, the usb ports stopped working.
are pc's churned out so quickly that the quality of them are getting worse than ever? sure would seem that way.
unless these people are just a few unlucky persons.
By comparison, my G4 sawtooth I sold last year was 7 yrs old. It had many upgrades I did personally (including the processor).... I sold it to a coworker and at 8 yrs old, I'm told it's still running great!
