    During my dotcom days like in Y2K, we had SCM (software configuration management) handle this stuff with QA and production servers. I played as one as a backup when other members are out for emergencies.

    I assume you upgraded its inside like replacing its original RAM, HDD, etc. since it is VERY slow. Too bad the newer MacBooks can't be done easily like the old ones (2008, 2012, etc.). :(

  16. Support too. on On The Sad State of Macintosh Hardware (rogueamoeba.com) · · Score: 1

    Has anyone else noticed its support and quality are going downhill too? Bugs, issues, etc. Also, its support is lame like its $29 battery issues in old iPhones a couple months ago:

            iPhone 6+'s $29 battery recalls. Apple sent to the wrong e-mail address even though it was never used when preordering the $29 batteries over the phones. Even their e-mails confirmed the correct addresses. How in the world did Apple messed up with two incorrect (Apple ID) e-mail addresses when the preorder confirmations were correct? They were never changed! No e-mails and calls about the delivered batteries for over four months!

            Following up for status updates had incompetent people like setting up two appointments for two iPhones 6+es. There were two openings back to back (3:40 and 3:50 PM PDT). The gal gave us the first one, but the second one was gone. We wanted to save a trip since its store was far. What the heck? Supervisor wasn't any better.

            Why only seven days in advance and not more?

            Why didn't Apple not tell authorized repair centers like Best Buy's Geek Squad that there were no batteries during appointment setups back in January 2018?

    Argh! We need really need Steve Jobs back. Oh yeah... :(

    Costly/Expensive, confusing, pain in the arse, etc. I'll just stick with the older stable stuff like USB(1-3).
