  Really? I've heard some, but not enough to dissuade me from getting it. I also got a two-year warranty for free and I live within reasonable distance of a Sony store (they exist, I was surprised to learn), so I think I'll be able to get decent support. I also suspect that they might go to a little bit more trouble supporting the Z because it really is their top-of-the line model, but I really don't know. I've also heard bad things about Macs, but they all end with happy stories about Apple's support which is definitely a point in their favor. While I can't say anything about Sony's cheaper offerings, the Z seems well-built and sturdy. The only real issues I've had were to do with Linux drivers, but I ultimately managed to resolve those satisfactorily.
