Linda, I sure hope you're right. I *really* need a computer that can stay ahead of my DSL connection. However, besides the hinges, there are problems with dead pixels and white spaces on the screen, and with 3rd party RAM.

A week or so ago I called the Apple Store and priced the base model ALBook, priced at about $2K to start. By the time I added RAM to 1 gig, Apple Care, shipping, and sales tax, I was just slighly under $3K. I haven't priced a comparable model at MacConnection, but I'll guess it will come in at about $2.5K.

Next week I'll call MacConnection and ask them about reported defects. I've found them to be very responsive, provided you ask the right question.
