The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    Well their entire manufacturing base is based on essentially slave labor. Hardly surprising at all really. That's just how it is until people want to pay more, which they don't soooo....

    Yep. I understand that and it is what it is. However the fanboys spewing garbage that apple is high and mighty is just hilarious.

    I dont get around as much as I used to or it just may be that I simply dont see it but havent seen much of that here on NBR, though I doubt were high on the list of forums/sites that generates substantial traffic for Apple related products

    No. It's not here thankfully. The apple users here are actually cool and open minded. I don't like apple at all lately becuase of all the garbage that has happened to my personal devices in the past year or so. That compounded with even apples own marketing crap which is total nonsense. Apple you make good stuff, stop lying about your products. Stop accusing others of this and that when you, yourself are doing the same and worse.

    Good, as apple should. They call out every other tech company doing the exact same thing they are behind closed gates. Apple is a dispicable company. Anything for the dollar. Scab company. I am so glad I am going to be apple free in another couple of weeks. Just need to ditch my iPhone when my note 10 gets here, and get rid of Apple music. Spotify is better anyways. Screw apple. Oh btw congress, apple won't change their ways until you block them from selling in the US. Then things will change.
