[P1] iBook Repair, Again, and Again and Again!

[Joe Sporleder]

Your statement in no way minimizes the bad luck I've had with this 
iBook. I've been a tech person in the Mac world for 10 years, and have 
dealt with a couple of older, slower models of iBooks that have worked 
great, so I'm not ignorant of the world of Mac portables. More recent 
models of iBooks have had more than their fair share of quality control 
problems. My premise is that the faster you make a machine and the more 
you compact it into a small space, the more chances you have of heat 
related failures.
