[QUOTE="245_Trioxin, post: 86373, member: 9573"] Dude, i'll be honest. I came to these forums in anticipation of buying a mac and checking them out. Having said that, i'm not so sure anymore. It sounds to me, from all the posts i've been reading here, the iMac g5 and the powermacs are lemons. I would be lying if I told you that i'm not skeptical of purchasing a mac now. I'll be . . . . if I drop 3 thousand bones on a machine that ends up being a pile of junk. For real. I might take my money and build yet another PC. And as for your post being removed, that's bunk too. It's forum fascism, man. I don't care if people there are mac-heads or not, a lemon is still a lemon, and you should be able to express your distain of apple if you have a legitimate beef. That's my two cents anyway. And If they don't like it, they can take the two cents and use it to buy a life or something. The customer is always right. It isn't like PC/Macs are cheap. We pay good money for them and the least they can do is make sure to sell us quality merchandise. But I do think I know what the problem is though. I think there has been a spike in apple sells recently due to the popularity of the iPod and the mac mini. The same thing is happening to them that happened to alienware after they got real popular. The more business they get and the more units they have to sell, the lower the product quality is. It's a case of quality suffering because the demand is so high. But seriously though, i'm surprised apple isn't recalling their iMac g5s. Seems to me that an unusually large number of people are having problems. [/QUOTE]
