Sandy Bridges? Weren't those the processors that were recalled last month? I mean, I know the ones in the Macbook pros weren't part of the recall but.....makes one think? Either that or OSX isn't as stable as Apple claims it to be. :)

Hmmm...first the chipset recall, and now this? Looks like my X58 platform is more reliable than "Muddy Bridge" LOL

This just in...Apple will be offering free neoprene cases in hopes that it will fix the problem.
If your fish seems sick, put it back in the water.

Ok, seriously, I'm not trying to troll but, What the hell did you expect? If there's a problem with an apple product they do ANYTHING they can to not admit it or help to fix it. Unless... they get class action law-suited like the iPhone4. They would rather resort to trying to slander another competitor than help their customers. $20 says Apple will release a statement saying that this is "a common issue. Just look at this acer laptop that does the same thing."

This is just divine justice...
If you buy an apple, you give money to apple. If you give money to apple, you deserve whatever POS you get in return.
If you buy a Sandy Bridge, you are saying that it is OK for the manufacturer to build kill switches and backdoors right into the hardware itself...and you should not complain when the system turns off or crashes for no clear reason...after all, that is one of the features you paid for.

I was so close to buying one of these. I basically got to the enter credit card page. So glad I didn't get one.
Does this occur on the 13" MBP?
