This was my fear as well, Apple and rev 1 hardware doesn't seem to have
a fantastic record. But then the more I thought about it, the more I
realized that Apple is betting the farm on this switch. So they are
going to do everything possible to be sure the rev 1 hardware works as
it should.
*smirk* Today, I had coffee with a guy that works at a local Apple
Store. He said they've already got three new x86 iMacs DOA. Their
total DOA count for the last two years of PPC Macs is - zero.
So I went ahead and ordered the Intel iMac. I'm typing this email on it
right now.
You bought AppleCare, right?
Keep good backups.
I have to say, so far I'm not the least bit disappointed in it
Great!
(from the Intel vs PPC side of things that is, I don't like the
remote mounting system as it keeps spitting my remote off the side of
the iMac, but I presume the same issue exists on the G5 version of this iMac).
Not sure what you're talking about here. Elaborate, please?
...Probably a good idea to elaborate in a new thread, to address this
specific problem.
