"Those Apple customers looking to vent or seek additional help from the company's online support site may be surprised at their options. In a posting yesterday, the Power Mac moderator directed all problems to customer relations and away from the support site"
This is horrible. I'm being shoved to the side by a company who I religiously use their product every minute of everyday. I'm extremely saddened by this.

Let's not make this another PC vs MAC thread. I use both, but I'm personally much more productive on a MAC.
It's just too bad that I got this crack on the case of my Cube and I'm stuck with it, it totally takes out the esthetic component, which is one of the reason why I bought it, it's just absolutely beautiful.

chill it was an obvious joke. there's no such thing as comparing apples to oranges anyway, both are usefull and serve their own purpose.

i had a similar problem when i bought my first dual g4/450..
when i got it, there were 2 loose plastic "hook thingies" clanken around so i took them out.. a few months later it occurred to me what they were.. they are part of the latching mechanism that keeps the case shit. i looked in and saw another was broken off, and one had been super glued over where am original one had broken off. shortly thereafter my case would no longer stay shut.
now i have a carabeener (sp?) clipped onto the pullback tab thing in the back to keep it shut.
all but forgot about it till now.called apple..
"we warantee our hardware, not our cases, youre SOL"..sigh..

If you want to unload that worthless cracked hunk of junk I'd think about taking it off your hands...
Come on. Everything is in a constant state of entropy. I could be worse, You could have scratches on your TiBook like I do! I cna't believe what a crappy company apple is! I place my TiBook on an abrasive surface and the paint scratches off... What a rip!!!

If the crack is really bad and you feel it will damage how it functions there are always cube cases on ebay...

[generalisation]
