I think there should be a mandatory quality check time set into play in the computer industry. What get me is X company make X hardware and releases Y hardware as new. Now when you go and benchmark X with Y, X is still faster! So now the average computer user that has to have the "new gadgets" without looking into the benchmarks has now just downgraded! I believe that the world since the days of old has fallen victim to greed. Here is my reasons, when my father was a child he could get a pack of cigs for a nickle. He worked in a field all day long to make a 25 cents. So now if you do the math and all the math of times one will see that the price has stayed the same with only ups in price and ups in wages. So people thought more meant more when it did not. So now we walk around with fatter wallets and still pay the same prices our ancestors did in the days of old. And it is this mentality that has let all these places (not just computers) make these things with crappy quality because its all about the more!
Just a rant I guess!
