There's also a really common problem with Rockshox forks in that they overly grease them and then the ports get blocked and then they need to be serviced because they sucked down and then maybe limited to 50% of the travel if you get it un sucked. I've got a Revelation and this happened to it, and then I had it serviced under warranty (and ended up with new lowers oddly), when it came back it seemed to functioned a lot better than it did when it was new, so @Howard has a good point about finding it was a dud in time.
I've also hired a bike with one of the Fox forks that @TvH is talking about and I'd say it was better than the Revelation.
