I purchased a Mac Pro for $4,333.50. Had an issue with the monitor from day 1 and had to send it back. Also had an issue with the memory failing. Problem was recognized only 2 weeks after I received the computer. I called, they said to remove the RAM and use a pencil eraser to renew the conductors.

Finally, fed up, I called... read more
I placed an order with OWC and tried to cancel it shortly after, but it was still shipped out.

I couldn't get it to work. Apple support didn't know why it wouldn't work. So I called OWC for help, as that is where I was going to buy the 2nd external drive. In the past, OWC was outstanding. This time the OWC representative was unfriendly and didn't seem like he cared if I ever purchased anything from OWC again. I felt like ... read more
