I don't think Apple's build quality is always as superb as legend makes it out to be. However, I find the quality aspect comes in the design, both of the hardware and in particular of the OS. I am an IT pro, and I use Macs at home because I don't want to waste my own time coddling my computer. I want to use it. It has always provided me with that. I see Windows users dealing with viruses and trying to uninstall software, get hardware to cooperate, etc... and I used to have to spend some of my work time helping them with this as well.

I have never once done the reformat and reinstall ritual in over 20 years of Mac use - even when doing major OS version upgrades. When I get extra hardware, I research it for a few minutes online, then buy it, plug it in, and go. I don't install the driver CDs or anything, it just works. I basically never spend any time maintaining the computer or dealing with its issues, it just works for me every single day. That's what I call quality.

i don like boomwave coz of the exterior tanduk or ears kinda design, i prefer the one i got...posted after u...
