I consider myself lucky. It’s been a little over a month since my iBook was serviced by AIS. I don’t mind mentioning AIS by name because AIS has proved to be far more adept than the so-called Geniuses (Genii?) at the actual Apple Store. So for your North Atlantan Apple needs, you’ll probably be happier at AIS. Got it?
(Of course, this might be just another calm before another storm — and by “storm” I mean another annoying series of mysterious shutdowns and test-pattern screen failures and application burps.)
Like I said, I’m lucky. So many others with the same iBook model are suffering some horrible fates. I mentioned the impending civil suit back in December. At the time, there were about 300 interested parties. That number is now over 2000. And while Apple still fails to notice the distinct scent of lemon on the air, the stories are out there.
So here’s the deal… Eventually, someone has to admit something. Apple is a proud company. They have taken great pride in their ability to generate an instant community around their products, and now that community is circling the wagons and demanding a little attention. Apple is a strong company, made stronger still by their recent record-breaking iPod sales. By virtue of this strength and pride, Apple should recognize their production of a faulty product and set that wrong to right.
With that in mind, I am offering what assistance I can to anyone who has their own logic board story to offer. Share your tale with me and I will provide a simple page herein where that story can be read by any one who might be interested. Of course, the more documentation you have, the better, as a proven plight is much more convincing than a raging rant.
