A leI ider has a story about a group of Mac users who have had enough of their faulty MacBooks, and they're not going to take it anymore. The group has set up a page at Cla Action.com and is looking for su ort to force A le into a recall of the company's newest co umer notebook. A leI ider also points to macbookrandomshutdown.com, a site dedicated to R (random shutdown syndrome) that already has over 1,250 reports of afflicted lapto .This shouldn't be much of a surprise. There have been reports of random MacBook shutdow for months, and A le even co ed to the problem last month, but there's not been much movement since then.
I didn't sign up at either of the petitioning sites, but I could have. I bought my fiancee a MacBook about a month after they were released and within a week it was shutting down at will. We were lucky, though. We made an a ointment at A le's main store in London and after the Genius witne ed two shutdow in as many minutes, he said he'd give us a brand new MacBook. Things have been OK so far.
Are any of you still suffering with the same problem? How has A le handled your complaints? Sound off in comments.
