Possibly with the move to lower price points Apple has had to make some 
compromises. The iBooks and PowerBooks do seem to receive more recalls 
than other Apple products. However, based on my past experience with the 
brand, I'll bet Apple's record is better than that of other laptop 
manufacturers.
