2011 MBP Died

[Queen6]

My 2011 MBP, failed one, AFTER the replacement. It failed at a worse time too...I was coding for an interview! I thought I will never get an Apple laptop again but I did Only this time, I got the base 15 with an upgraded SSD to 512GB..no graphics card. If you can sell the 2011 now, I would recommend that strongly. It is just unreliable. It will fail again...it is just a matter of time. BTW...I have had this problem 3 times now The 2007 model, 2010 model and 2011 model. All three times I promised I am not gonna buy Apple again...failed three times courtesy OSX. Windows is still not there yet...

Sorry don't agree; selling a known defective product to an unsuspecting individual, versus forcing the manufacturer to honour repair and ultimately replacement can only result in more of the same poor quality, and potentially exactly what Apple wants; more sales...

Q-6

Sold mine at a massive loss to a buyer who knew about the problem. Plus mine still had over 8 months of AppleCare. Not sure what part of my post suggested cheating. There are buyers who will buy this cause
a) they are looking for spare parts
b) they believe they can extend the lifespan of the laptop by performing repairs on their own.

For e.g., the buyer to whom I sold it to, believed he could extend the lifespan by heating the motherboard in a microwave.

Then they are not unsuspecting...
