1st gen. hardware + unstable drivers. What do you expect? A production ready machine, or what!?
Whoa, wait, what? That's a huge pass for any company. The MacBook Air is not a brand new model, it is simply updated specs. If these new specs derail it from working as any commercially available notebook, then it should not have been released. I'm not debating the numbers of users who bought 2013 models versus those who are experiencing issues, the fact Apple acknowledged it so quickly speaks in of itself.
Computers are expensive, selling a system as a finalized product then recalling it paints a picture much bigger than "oh, it's just too new, bugs are expected". No way, Chrysler didn't get away with it in the recent Jeep Grand Cherokee fiasco, neither did Toyota/Lexus. Those brands took a hit. Company brand is only as good as their latest product, and lately quality has become an issue with Apple.
