only 2 problems for me.

the first was my powerbook wallstreet hinges. they took about 3 years till they snapped. lasted a while though.

the second is the cd drive on my cube. it never ejects the cd's out with helping them out.

besides that, i love my apples!

my apple pro mouse "died" on sunday...the first apple product i own to die on me before i sell it.

is 2 years a good lifespan for a mouse that is frickin 70 euros??? i dunno.

is there any way one can open that thing and maybe repair it?

other than that all my apple stuff as been a1, except for the cd-drive in my bondy imac, which is a POS.

I had a hard drive & mother board replaced with no hassle. Don't have any pictures! I'm very satisfied with Apple!

Did it fall off a table or something?

Remnants of my IIvx
Some would say that all Mac IIvx were defective out of the box Mine was truly a lemon, dying not long after the warranty expired. Took it back to the store for a repair estimate... "Yeah we can fix it, we just need to replace the motherboard." I've forgotten how much it would have cost, but it was high enough to make me think about committing violence of some sort.
