The iMac......

So a few days ago I was ichatting with Ashly, it was the coolest thing ever!! As soon as we were done, my computer started ticking and the icons kept resetting. I shut it down and restarted it. That didn't help. So today, I took it back to the Apple store to see if they could fix it. Have I mentioned that this is the 4th iMac since we bought it in March to give us issues......
Anyways, the genius bar plugged their machine into it and told me that the hard drive was completely dead. How does this happen on a brand new computer??? So, they said they were going to give me another brand new one. They brought out the new one and started to transfer my itunes, pictures, and what not. The computers totally froze. The genius (their word, not mine) helping me told me that has never happened before. I find this funny because they tell us this every time we take our computer back. Well needless to say, the 30 minutes it was supposed to take to get me up and running again, turned into a few day process because they had to fully take apart the old computer to get our information off of it. Weird!! Pain in the butt! I live 45 minutes from the Gateway and now I have to go back on Monday to pick it up!!! Ugh!! So my question is to anyone with a Mac, have you had any issues with them or is it just me??? I guess we'll find out when we get the new one!!!! And just in case you're considering buying one, they are awesome when they work!!!
