NMNTBS

I don't know what NMNTBS means. Please define it. Thanks, testudo, I'm one of your biggest fans. You make the posts worth reading.

Let the screams of those who have gone through horrifying pain and anguish from Apple's mistreatment of them begin! Class action, class action, class action!!!

Or is it maybe the manufacturer's fault? You guys do realize that these laptops are not being built in the US right? And that most of them did not have this plastic cover on the computer...

It is probably the manufacturer's fault, and they probably screwed up only on a few occasions...

Suing... yeah, can I sue you for wasting my bandwidth?

Isn't it Asustek that landed the contract to manufacture these for Apple? So, if anything, it's a problem caused by the contractor, Apple has caught it, and is making an informative announcement about it to it's customers. That's a good thing! (unless Apple specs specify that the sheet be left on the vent, which I highly doubt.)

Oh, and what would be a thread be without a useless non-contribution by testy testudo... Really, buddy, what has Apple ever done to you to make you THAT bitter? ...or maybe you're just bitter because your mom doesn't buy you any of the new shiny toys, and you lame Apple for it..?

That explains why my Mac Book Pro is overheating!

(what? only Mac Books have this problem? really?)

oh.

Its gotten to the point where a simple comment "Whoops" (which I don't know can be construed in any other way then attempting at humor) is seen as some bitter remark.

Now, if I went off on how this was all Apple's fault because once you outsource your production, you lose the total control that would ensure these kind of things wouldn't occur (which is odd, because you know that's what Steve likes).

Or saying something like "Hey, at least you don't have to take the computer apart to remove the plastic, like you do with the PowerMac G5s, which, for some reason, always ships with some plastic inside that you need to remove (but only know about it if you're one of those "Read the manual" types).

But it was just a "Whoops!".

And NMNTBS means No more needs to be said.

That's why I buy used macs... I make sure that someone used it before me, make it run perfectly, enough so I can buy it and run it safe, free of any troubles ;)

...you can sue me for wasting your bandwidth. I am countersuing for lack of any sense of humor.

Coming from testudo, I thought NMNTBS meant "Now More Needy Troll B.S."

Thanks for clarifying :)
