Found the following on another forum. I thought it was pretty funny and applicable to this thread. (Names have been removed.)

(Talking about a new MacBook Air)
"What a piece of crap! I actually had to wait almost 30 seconds for it to boot up today. Then another 5 seconds to be on the internet. I nearly dropped the thing as it practically weighs nothing. I can't believe it, I actually had to find a blanket as my computer doesn't put out any heat and I got a little cold in my favorite chair. I had planned to spend half the day updating my antivirus software and doing "maintenance" but instead had to paint a bathroom....I'm very disappointed! BTW, I haven't had any trouble with Crossover....and it was cheap to boot...Crossover was cheap...not the Mac."


REPLY:
"Your aggravation WRT your MBAir is not a good thing. Continued irritation and emotional upset could lead to hypertension, psychological stress, and a host of other problems. Any abnormality during your FAA physical could lead to long-term disability, or put your career at risk.

I would like to offer you some assistance. I will take your MBAir off your hands, at no charge. In addition, I will pay for shipping. I have some other MAC products, & will not be affected by the adverse conditions you are experiencing. You will be free to return to your PC & lower your stress level. (BTW- waiting for the boot-up is a perfect time to make a sandwich).

Lemme know,"
