Warning! Unusual rant. I totally snapped after my new Mac just died.

Just when I get my Photoshop, it died. The damn thing just stopped working while I was checking my gmail. It wouldn’t force quit nor restart, so I had to reboot the hard way. Then it couldn’t startup again. I mean, it has only been 2 months since I got my Macbook and it’s already half dead either because of overheating or a hard disk error.

My laptop is my life. I play, communicate and work with it. No computer under my use has ever had major problems. I meticulously care for its software and other functions (though not too conscious about the cleanliness of its exterior heh!). No one defrags and run anti-virus/spyware programs as frequently as I do. Even the supposed impenetrable Mac was well taken care of.

Seriously, with all the hype about how superior Macs are to Windows, this is the shittiest experience I’ve had with a computer. I didn’t even do anything for it to die. Gmail can’t possibly kill 2GB RAM on a 2.16Ghz Intel Core Duo with enough space left to fit 20 HQ movies. Can you imagine if I was in a middle of an essay and it just suddenly died? I would have seriously jumped off the building.

Steve Jobs better be making laptops with some durability in the future. I mean you are quite a failure of an engineer if a user can’t trust his/her own computer to function without suddenly wiping out the hard disk for no reason at all.

When Apple is done fixing it, I will be selling it for cheap. I should have stayed a loyal customer to Sony to begin with. Looks like I will end up with a Pink Sony Laptop after all.

TO MAC FANATICS: Shut the hell up. It’s not hip for a computer to die on you may it be Windows, Linux or Mac. With such a horrifying experience, I will probably never own an Apple product again.
