You can blame Sony, when SONY accepted the fault and paid for the recalls of the defective batteries that Sony had provided to computer manufacturers, HP, Dell, Apple, Lenovo, Fujtsu, and Toshiba, reaching a total of over SEVEN MILLION batteries recalled by October 2006! — Source is "Sony Laptop Battery Recall Widens"— NBC report from October 13, 2006.
That is an uncomfortable thing which is called an historical fact, Arl295. . . but YOU want to rewrite history to make the recalled 7 million batteries made by Sony for VARIOUS COMPUTER COMPANIES completely disappear but focus instead on the fraction of those batteries made by Sony for Apple bear the entire brunt of the recall. . . YOU ARE DELUSIONAL!
Only HP, who also used the Sony batteries, but a different model and technology, was not included in the recall.
Technically, Apple does not make any products, so they can never held accountable
The hard drives: Seagate, Hitachi, Toshiba
CPUs, Intel
Memory, Micron, Samsung, etc
AC Adapters, Delta, Etc
Motherboards, Foxconn
Displays, LG, Sharp, Samsung
All assembled by the lowest bidder out in China by little kids who live in slave labor camps
Only thing Apple does is marketing, and it is the only thing they can do right
Technically you are right, Apple does not manufacture anything, so they can not be held accountable, Just like Hillary Clinton right?
