Bad Experience With Apple Options

[zakary]

I bought my mini (brand new) 2 months ago from London, i live in Athens - Greece. After a months use i started to get many unexpected application quits and finally Kernel panics (the grey screen) and not been able to boot. I asked Apple in Athens for support (within warranty) and they told me THAT NO SUPPORT IS OFFERED by APPLE in GREECE, ONLY THE PLACE I BOUGHT IT FROM.

I attemted to install Osx 10.4.2 again from the disks i got with the mini, first i did all disk checks from the disk utility and got no errors, i did the zero data to wipe everything off and started installing OSX, installation reaches a point (writting files to the HD) and it stops, i get a message "installation failed", there's nothing i can do.

So my experiences are not so good. Coming from a pc/winXP platform, i can assure you i had less trouble, crashes and much better processing power for the money i pay. I do acknowledge that osx is a much better looking interface than any other. If anyone doubts my experience, look into the apple forums and see other mac user problems.

I am at a stage where i have a mac mini, that cannot boot or have the OS installed, unsuable, no one can resolve my problem and APPLE in Athens tells me that they cannot offer support to me.

that is of course, were people who have problems go, so you will see other people with problems there.

It is entirely possible that you have a problem because hard drives have caused many people problems since the day they were invented.
