I had condensation in my car when I got into it this evening. If only I had bought that extended warranty.
 
You know it's pretty funny how iff you type apple sucks all of you guys get so frickin pissed chill out i was an apple fan boy just like all of you, But the fact is this would NEVER had happened with any other manufacturer between 4 crap imacs and my Macbook pro keyboard shutting on and off randomly ive noticed apple products really are'nt that great and for it being my house, i ran a de-humidifier and there was no water in the air!!

And for all of you guys that saying the iMacs is perfect i dont care who you are your iMac has some serious backlight bleedage they all do and they're all built horibbly and are defective one way or another.. and its funny because if this was Dell all of you be talking about how the quality is terrible. But you should guys just keep buying apple's crap

Thanks to all of you who actually did understand my post I didnt want to leave apple but after them keeping me on hold for 3 1/2 hours and an apple care representative telling me he does'nt know what i should do, I really think im better with this pc, besides i still got my whole itunes collection and i can actually use cover flow no, the 2.8 extreme could'nt evan handle all my album covers.

ALL OF YOU SHOULD CONSIDER BUILDING A HACKINTOSH IF YOU REALLY LOVE APPLE THAT MUCH, YOU SERIOUSLY DONT WANNA GO THROUGH THE **** IVE DELT WITH APPLE.

ALSO LOOK AT THIS!! YOU GUYS THINK IM CRAZY BUT THE NEW IMACS REALLY DO SUCK..

Go Ahead Bust My Balls About Anger Problems But If You Were In My Shoes You Would Just As Pissed If Not More, The Imacs P.o.s. Would Prov In Two Pieces, I Have Been Extremely Patient With These Guys.

Also Im Only 19 I Dont Have All This Money To Be Blowing Like All Of You Guys So Spending All This Money Is Expensive Seeing I Could Build A Hackintosh For A Quarter Of The Price.

Um... OK.

So if money is limited, why did you buy the Mac Pro + $1000 monitor? I'm guessing $3500 is a fair bit of change when you could build the hacked version for, apparently, $875. And since, obviously, you paid for OS X, that means the hardware ran you less than $800.

Can we see a parts list, please? And maybe some copies of the receipts for all of these Macs (with personal data removed)?
 
This is one great thread :D

$3500 is a lot of money to spend. You'd have to be in a pretty financial status to be blowing all that on computers without blinking. Plus you got all that in your sig, pretty darn well for just a normal 19 yr old.

IMHO, I believe we got a troll.
 
LOVE my iMac so far. First one I've owned and is the only Apple product I have so no Fan Boy here by any means. If it keeps going like this, I'll never own another PC.

There is a bit of backlight noticable in the bottom corners when the screen is completely black and the lights are off but I don't see how that will ever cause me a problem. I have NO other issues including the dreaded gradient or pixel issues.

Had to call AppleCare with a question I had because I'm an Apple newbie. The call went very well and they fixed me up in no time. Just might be buying the extended warranty after all.

And BTW, if you have no moisture in your air but your iMacs have condensation, you must have accidentally clicked the "add faucet" option on the BTO screen! :confused:
 
Honestly I think this thread is troll-bate and should be moved to the waste land. Nothing good has come of it so far... mods?

Isnt that nice?? Well i cant wait to see when you have problems with your mac, i came on here to warn you guys that these new imacs are not worth the trouble and if you own one , you will very shortly know what im talking bout theres so many common problems with them ands its impossible to over look them.

So go ahead guys bash me for telling you apple sucks i know that up your rear end side ways but honestly it inst worth owning an iMac im telling you guys my story so all of you don't have to go what i went through,

I would honestly like to see anyone on hold for 3/12 hours and for the guy who said just call them back, I did on my house phone while i was on hold with my iphone and i was the 4th call to be answered.

Do you know what means??

That means apple store providence straight up does'nt care about there customers, there is no reason the phones weren't being answered from 10am - 2pm all i wanted to know is how long my iMac screen cleaning was going to take but right then and there i realized how much of a joke apple was, dont waste your time or you money going to that stupid store. ESPECIALLY APPLE STORE PROVIDENCE ITS A JOKE!
 
On screen condensation

Do you know the laws of physics?
screen condensation = Cold equipment + warm air with moisture

If you are in a cold area, you need to let the machine warm up to room temperature first.

Why don't you try this. Put a glass outside, let it get cold, and bring it in? OMG the glass maker sucks... There is condensation on my glass!!! WTF my life is ruined!!! lol
A canna’ change the laws of physics!

I wish I had a Mac Pro when I was 19...

I second the idea .. good thinking jsw .. Oh OP thanks for wasting my time for reading the first post of such thread .. kthxbye
 
Ybut after them keeping me on hold for 3 1/2 hours
This amazes me.

You called your local store and were put into a call queue and you held in that queue for 3.5 hours?!

... to talk to someone at your local store?!

At some point (I'd think 30 minutes, absolute maximum), you'd have to realize that there was a problem with their phones, hangup and call the store back.
 
You know it's pretty funny how...

Hang on, dude. Let me clean that up for you again. This ought to get your point across a little better.

It greatly annoys me that anyone who expresses a disparaging opinion about Apple seems to incite the ire of the rest of the forum. However, the fact remains that the outrages about which I posted would never have happened with any other manufacturer, especially one with as sparkling a reputation for quality as Hewlett-Packard. Why, between four non-perfect iMacs and non-perfect Mac Pro keyboard, I have been plagued with so many awful happenings that I will make a sweeping generalization about everything Apple produces! Also, those of you saying that the humid environment in my house was causing condensation, I have thoroughly de-humidified the air with a brilliant piece of de-humidifying equipment I purchased at the local dollar store.

Those of you espousing your own perfect Macs are obviously lying. Your screen has backlight bleeding that I can see all the way over here from my parents' basement, even though you live in another state or possibly another country, and if you think it doesn't, then you're blind and stupid. Please fix it, because it’s keeping me awake at night. Your Macs are so horribly defective that I’m shocked they haven't given you all cancer because of all the Defect Rays spewing out of them. Yet in spite of their complete lack of quality, you all continue to line Steve Jobs's pockets.

Thank you to everyone who was able to muddle through my broken words. I have no hands, so I dictate my posts to my cat Mittens, who types for me. Mittens is remarkably intelligent for a cat, but not for a person, which is why my posts have such rudimentary, child-like grammar and spelling.

I am sad to be leaving Apple, but their customer service failings and cancer-causing product defects have left me no choice. I really feel better off on a PC. Here's a piece of advice--consider putting together a Hackintosh. Editing kexts, building your own install disk, dealing with hardware incompatibilities, and nursemaiding along a system that’s less stable than a beta version of Red Hat on ten-year old hardware is a fine alternative to actually using your computer and having fun. Since I'm on a PC, I’m halfway there already!

Also, please look at this video. It’s two cats talking to each other!

(At least, that’s what I think it is. IE7 says my Flash plug-in is misconfigured and I need to adjust my internet zone security settings and update my plug-in database, or something...)
