I really hope the new ones are better, because Apple has just called me back and agreed to send a brand new machine. But that was after two trips to the workshop, two complete system reinstalls and numerous hours of restoring everything and answering to lots of questions from the support. And after second repair attempt I could not connect to my office's invisible, WEP-protected network at all, no matter what trick I tried.</p> <p>As for the whine, Apple will repair your machine if you want to, so don't sit quiet and let them get away with it! We expect more from Apple, don't we? </p> You are so right, Apple has a painful lesson to learn from with this MBP, first edition.

As for the whine, Apple will repair your machine if you want to, so don’t sit quiet and let them get away with it! We expect more from Apple, don’t we?

My problems (May mbp, 15") are the whine and crappy airport behavior, which starts acting up as soon as I take it to an iffy range (areas that were fine on my powerbook g4) and won't recover without being turned off and on. Apple knows we will tolerate a certain amount of this stuff, which is infuriating. It will hurt the company in the long run, as the brand loses any reputation for quality.</p> I think this is what the average mbp owner is quietly suffering through.
