"Apple customer service is horrid."
Pros: The OS is possibly the best around.
Cons: Everything else.
Summary: I ordered a new powerbook G4 12" online directly from apple. On recieving it I noticed that the case was warped, and the screen damaged. I called apple immediatly (2 days after delivery) and informed them of the defective product, to my surprise, Apple refused to send me another item, and insisted that I drive an hour to the closest Apple repair center to get my new powerbook repaired. They shipped me a damaged product, and expect me to swallow it and settle for a repair. I opted to send everything back to them and ask for a refund, and they want to charge me a 10% return fee. This would have been my first Apple, but I think I will now stick to IBMs. If you care about the build quality of your hardware, and customer service, stay as far away from any Apple product that you can. It's a pitty, because OS X is the best OS out there, but as I have learned, Apple just plain sucks.

I just bought a brand new 12.1" PowerBook (May 24, 2005) and it arrived with a warped bottom case. Apple Customer Service has been great in responding to my issue. However, the Apple dealer fails to acknowledge this problem. It pays to buy directly from Apple.

Oh get over it, you had a Bad experience. They did the same with the iPod. Mate, give them another chance. I love my Powerbook, especially when I hated Apple after being converted to a Mac User last year, I will never go back. Such stable and fast Hardware
