For me, nothing could ever possibly top Apple's rejection of strain relievers on their cables. It's absolutely the perfect blend of their overrated design sense with their unerring corporate instinct for planned obsolescence.
Also let us not forget Apple is the only laptop manufacturer whose laptops have failing SATA cables. I am yet to run into any laptop with drive cables failing.
Sata cables? There aren’t sata cables in MacBooks and haven’t been for like a decade.
Indeed. And yet I have never mentioned anything about what age laptops I was talking about. Then again, Apple was also only manufacturer with unibody laptop whose two parts unglued when you used your laptop for anything more intensive because they designed air flow in such a way so that hot air blows on "unibody" glued part. It's just comedy all around.
