Are you talking about a PowerBook or an iBook? There is a slight difference!
Yeah, one has a Titanium case and the other has an Aluminum case.
You obviously don't program for a living, or at least, don't do it very well.
Now you're just being an ass... I do program for a living, and make a lot of money doing it, and I have managers in different departments fighting over me, so fuck you and your snotty little comments. You are a fucking little tiny speck.

You didn't even read Apple's iBook return program, did you?
It covers specific model numbers. It does not cover a computer by how old it is. Just because a computer has been owned for less than 2 years, does not mean it is a computer that was made less than 2 year ago. And as I said before (a lot of repeating myself with you) it is a Titanium laptop, not the new Aluminum laptop (which is in the model number range in Apple's return program)
Also, to be redundant, a person working in QA needs to be one of those people that Big Screaming Bugs are obvious to.
So, after all of your posting you have helped me 0%, I guess I should thank you for trying, but I'm won't.

eg. the iBook logic board failures
That's only the newer iBook (Al)
There are many people with Ti Books less than 2 years old with the same logic board problem, but it costs $1000 to fix.
I just bought a G5 and damn if it's not the first time I've considered buying the extended warrenty.
I also bought an air conditioner to keep it cooler.
The company I used to work for was very Mac oriented (now busted up) Several coworkers had Ti Powerbooks, now the talk about how they never move them... WTF?! You pay thousands extra for a portable computer that's too fragile to be portable. Like I said, I love Macs and have been a customer for years. The last black powerbooks were, in my opinion, the best laptop apple has made, they are very sturdy and mine is still running (almost non-stop) for 3+ years. (I did upgrade the hard drive after 2 years, it was making a noise and I wanted bigger anyway)
And more to the point of your response, I don't think it's my job to be Apple's QA department. If someone working for me in QA couldn't catch this obvious ERROR they'd be replaced.

I've sent to several email addresses and used this page.
This is a bug that screams in your face when it happens, I shouldn't have to scream in Apple's face. I've already spent way too much time on trying to alert Apple about this obvious error in it's desktop rendering. I love Apple, but in the past few years, I've felt like the guy who has to break up with someone because it's just not working out... they've changed. (The huge amounts of hardware failures makes me feel this way more than anything) It's very sad, it breaks my heart.
OS X Still Incorrectly Draws Portait Image Preview

When the 'show icon preview' box is checked in the 'Show View Options' pane, the preview icon for images with a portrait aspect ratio (taller than it is wide) are incorrectly drawn.
This is a screen shot of two folders I made.
Each one has a set of images that are named to match their size (in pixels).
'show icon preview' is on for both of these folders. The icon size is set to 128 pixels.
As anyone can see, the landscape images have correct previews, but the portrait images get smaller. It appears the more narrow the image is, the smaller the preview.
It is not using it's 128x128 icon space.
The 8 x 128 image is so narrow, it's preview icon disappears altogether!
I've written Apple and sent them the link... *sigh*
Yeah, the story was only 20 minutes old and I had to tell somebody I figured I had the Karma to burn =-) Of course this will probably get modded down, too, AIIC
No, they can't get my phone number with a reverse look up because I do not have a phone number I only have a cell phone and the number is not listed, and if I ever do get a land line again (not likely) I will have an unlisted number.
How can I make this clear?
If Blockbuster has my cell phone number, they will call it every week.
Cell phone calls cost money.
I will not pay for Blockbuster to call me just to see if I still have that number.
If Blockbuster can not trust me to return a movie, even when they can bill my credit card outrageous fees (making them rich) then they can SHOVE IT!
I think the point is to study the specific pattern of the cost (value) reductions, which is an obvious trend, but can't be used to predict prices if not studied.
They have a valid credit card number and my address. Which is too much info already. The main point is, if I give Blockbuster my phone number, I will get a dead-air phone call from them at least once a week. If they weren't doing this, I would give them my phone number.
