It could be legally problematic. Admitting to a general fault could lead to a full on recall which given how integrated the keyboard is could cost almost the same as replacing every single machine.
(Of course, with $100bn+ in cash, they probably should do this, but I can see why they wouldn't.)
- std_throwaway 8y agoI don't like the improvements they made that actually make the new MBPs worse for what I do. I also don't trust them regarding the keyboard issues and will wait two years before even considering a new MBP. If my old MBP breaks it will be some other manufacturer with questionable long term quality but much lower price. They lost my faith and doing a major recall would do lift their image in my eyes tremendously.
