This really resonates with me, sitting at a similarly aged iMac that frequently displays bafflingly poor performance, displaying what I like to call the &amp;quot;psychedelic jelly-tot of death&amp;quot;.&lt;p&gt;Sort of off-topic, but another thing that &lt;i&gt;really&lt;/i&gt; frustrates me with Apple products is when something goes wrong with the hardware. I have a 3+ year old Macbook Air. The &amp;#x27;t&amp;#x27; key - specifically the little contact button under the key - stopped working consistently. Very frustrating when you start to realise just how much &amp;#x27;t&amp;#x27; shows up in the English language.&lt;p&gt;Anyway, I made some calls enquiring about how much a repair would cost: around €300. They just replace the entire aluminium top plate because it&amp;#x27;s impossible to replace a single contact button, and unfeasible to replace the whole keyboard array - this involves complete disassembly, and a bunch of other delicate steps, which look incredibly daunting.&lt;p&gt;I know that this is probably the trade-off for having such a small form factor, but between this, a defective SSD, a locked-in battery and periodically replacing chargers at €80 a pop, I am distinctly less enthusiastic about purchasing Apple products in the future.</text><parent_chain><item><author>planetjones</author><text>It&amp;#x27;s really frustrating for me just how many bugs Apple software has.  Let&amp;#x27;s look at a simple one - the icons on iOS safari for frequently visited websites.  They &amp;quot;randomly&amp;quot; assign the wrong favicon e.g. I click the Facebook icon and it loads Hacker News.  This has been present since iOS 8.  Yesterday I pulled down the notification screen and it occupies only 50% of my screen.  Cue another reboot of the iPhone.&lt;p&gt;My iMac.  Upgrading to Yosemite was the worst mistake ever.  Now I have to use a cheap mouse and keyboard, as Apple&amp;#x27;s Bluetooth versions no longer wake the sleeping iMac.  I have tried every solution on the Internet to this and none fix it.  The beachball is becoming ever more prominent on the iMac too.  Very disappointing for a machine which isn&amp;#x27;t 3 years old.&lt;p&gt;My Macbook Air.  It&amp;#x27;s better, but the power button no longer does anything when I press it.&lt;p&gt;Apple products have a huge premium and the quality of the software is not matching the price tag.  I am not surprised to see the stock falling; usually when IBM buy your products en masse you know something is wrong :)&lt;p&gt;I don&amp;#x27;t know what the culture at Apple is.  But I don&amp;#x27;t think their software developers can be anything other than the &amp;quot;norm&amp;quot; - and I am extremely worried about their automated testing culture.  Maybe someone can comment.&lt;p&gt;EDIT: I just remembered my Apple Cr*p folder home to Podcasts, Tips, Apple Watch, Calendar, Health, Apple Store, Apple Maps, Videos, Reminders and Newstand.  Podcasts actually cost me money when it started downloaded podcasts over 3G despite me saying wifi only.  I think that bug got fixed, but I&amp;#x27;ll never trust it again.  I also forgot about the white elephant that is the Apple Time capsule I purchased.  It&amp;#x27;s slow over wifi from the iMac and was one of the causes of my beachball, but the main issue was it kept saying it couldn&amp;#x27;t back up because the disk was locked.  For a company like Apple who should supposedly simplify backup, the product is a shambles.  Maybe this is better now, but I won&amp;#x27;t be upgrading.</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>It Just Works</title><url>http://www.danielandrews.com/2015/08/05/it-just-works/</url></story>
