Overall they are very nice machines.
Oh no they're not. Nobody told me the cpu guts were buried under
the
motherboard, so I threw one out (I found it in the snow in Freehold,
NJ alongside route 9).
Why would the location of the motherboard cause you to trash a machine?
And those darned emi copper springs were
always falling all over the place.
If they're abused, yes.
Ok, the issue is it was made kind of too well.
But nobody cares. It's
a basic pain.
I guess I just don't follow that logic. *I* care (not that you
should care about the fact that I care ;)) because I sold and serviced
those machines when they were new, and was always impressed by them
for a number of reasons.
