There's a lot of people knocking the latest MacBooks, and that crashing sounds like a real issue (although no one I know with one has mentioned it), and the last second change in battery tech was a shame, but folks need to remember that these are the most powerful MacBook pros apples ever made as well as the most portable. I'm not saying anything they are perfect but I wonder if they'd have received so much flack if they were announced by Steve Jobs.

I doubt it would be any different. The "outrage" around antenna-gate was way louder.

In fairness though there are a far higher number of phone sales to fancy pants laptops and the phones that were sold simply didn't work as intended - a fatal design flaw rather than an inconvenient attempt from apple to steer a market.
