I have had one, the MBP with the now well-known keyboard issues, but I got it replaced and eventually went to the 3rd Gen, whilst I am no fan of the keyboard I will give them some slack when they do something new and unusual and wait for improvements, which there were.
There is about 15k USD of kit here at home, I am a committed and patient kind of guy when it comes to Apple.
Apple set themselves up for that though. it's a tough ask to listen to the marketing blurb of 'the best we have ever made' at the highest price ever charged to then find you might get a bent one. But not to worry about it. Others companies may get away with something like this, Apple never will.
Then the PC folks get a hold of the news and suddenly it's a fault with every other device...
So yeah, there is an issue, maybe blown out of proportion. Time will tell.
