6 !@#$ing batteries
They had a problem with 6 @#$ing batteries and they decide to do a recall. Wow, if the automotive industry did that, our cars would probably never leave the shop.

I would applaud Apple for being so quick to take action instead of criticizing them for having a problem

Obviously you have never dealt with a production environment to realize that sometimes you bring in good and assemble them only to have them blow up in your face.

This is the way the production system works. Nothing comes from the shop flawless, with the exception of the Saturn car. :P

I am not an Apple fanboy, more like a recent convert, so what are you gonna do with that sausage?
