hangs

been complaining about this total failure of an apple product for a while now. its latest failure was to hang the os whilst trying to disconnect the vpn and complete a backup. this after it was sandbagged earlier for overheating. the appletards apparently have made no progress on 10454739. admittedly, the random nature of its failings make it a tough one to figure out, but its catalogue of failings is substantial and getting more so:
  1. defective keyboard - took a few attempts to fix, the first of which was pretty unsavoury.
  2. overheating - ongoing continuous nightmare.
  3. and now this.
what a disappointing piece of shit ....
