Bought my first Apple product a 27"iMac just less than 2 years ago, I was very excited the best looking desktop ever all went well until February this year the machine was just over 1 year old and it died, is this common?
I give Apple credit because they did replace the motherboard and video card, actually everything except the hard drive at no cost even though the machine was 1 month out of warranty.
We thought we could get at least another couple of years out of the machine
Yesterday the machine got so hot I could not even touch the case, we called Apple support they made an appointment and I took it to the local Apple store, their diagnostic failing hard drive, they called this morning the motherboard has gone again, it is going to cost me over $773 dollars to replace the board on top of the $362 for the hard drive.
Is this other peoples experience with an iMac?
Is it time to scrap the iMac and go back to Windows I am furious and disappointed in Apple what a con?
