[QUOTE="WhiteLight, post: 430363, member: 9556"] That's quite unfortunate. However 'great' Macs are, there are some long term issues that Apple have not (or not bothered) to fix. I have an late 2012 27" iMac with 24gigs RAM & i5 3.5ghz.. I dual boot OpenSuse for Android Development on this machine. I have not had a single freeze, hang of that sort ev3en once. in fact, i think i had the machine on for well over 4 months & it was still purring nicely. but i do have a widely known problem for imacs, which is a slight dark color on a couple of smudges, near the edges of the display. The only solution is to get it replaced. ANd Apple wont do it easy, though they know it is a QC issue. They just say you are not working in a clean environment & sh*t like that. but if you bully them back, they will replace it.. even under apple care (which i did not renew after the first year) I also have 3 Win machines at home, wife uses one for work & mum has a Vaio too (i just recently converted her to a Linux Mint user :D ) But i can tell you from the bottom of my heart, i will never venture to Windows again. i absolutely detest the OS... the number of reboots, hangups etc etc is just unbearable. I can't believe before getting the mac 3 years back, i lived only on Windows. I seriously hope your issue gets sorted (i know there are a few DIY solutions that work, if you want to get adventurous) cos the macs are beauties. iPhones, Ipads and all other nonsense? nevermind :D [/QUOTE]
