[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1750063, member: 56379"] Yes...but how many of those hits are referencing unique information. Many times information is reprinted & reprinted...and referenced & re-referenced. Many times media articles on the internet will be re-hashed & reprinted between various media outlets & bloggers. I think that if those 374,000 Google hits were "boiled down"...the actual number of computers affected by this issue would be MUCH MUCH less than 374,000.:) 374,000 hits does not translate to 374,000 computers being affected. Also...how many retina MacBook Pro's have been sold between 2012 & now. Millions & millions & millions. Statistically this issue is probably very small. And. I cannot remember the last time a Mac-forums member mentioned having this issue. If this issue was widespread...we would certainly have heard from at least some folks. With all of this said. It really does not seem that this issue is that widespread. I agree. But then this is the way it is with most companies. - Nick [/QUOTE]
