Never seen Apple admit a bug publicly, but I've seen plenty of times when Apple sweeps it under a rug and silently patch it after few months.

Yanno, all this hate towards apple really kicked off once people learned the Iphone4 has signal issues... I wonder what'll happen when they learn that the battery installed in said phone doubles as a fregmentation grenade? (Ala iPod & MacBook)
[citation][nom]JonathanDeane[/nom]+1 lolI remember for years that if you tried to install quicktime on my machine, I would probably cut off your fingers....[/citation]I would avoid install quicktime at all cost. Luckily there is "quicktime alternative" codec to play quicktime movie (the same goes for real alternative for rmvb).
Back to the topic, isn't Apple famous for removing threads on it's own forum for any of their issue? WTF they can be the leader in admitting any wrong doing?

People have been saying for years that if Apple gains more popularity and market share then the stability of the software would be called into question.
Well, now the popularity and market share are up, so is the bug count.
I should have put money on it.
Just wait until Apple creeps up a few more percentage points and people start to see it for the swiss-cheese patchwork iCrap that it really is.

Why is Google only reported in 2010 and why did Mozilla suddenly get a near perfect record for 2010?

Apple doesn't usually admit software bugs. They just silently fix them so end users will continue to believe the myth that Apple software is less buggy than desktop Windows 7 or Android on mobile phones.

No no it's just the simple fact that it's obviously not Apple's fault, the user is just clicking on the wrong things.

Apple may be the leader in admitting software bugs, but Microsoft and Adobe are the makers of the most buggy software.

LOL, I have a friend down the road who deals with macs and I deal with windows, He is always sending me work, but unfortunately, I never get work to send to him!
He confirms that Apple are good at catching the Bugs in the software, and trust me, he gets just as frustrated with OSX and MAC hardware as windows tech do!
I just laugh when we have the same customers with both systems and I install faster more capable windows 7 systems for less than the shiny Macs they have, oh, and I am cheaper for support!

You forget something important, for Apple only half bug really happen.
They just don't admin it...
They delete your post in the Apple forum... like you never report a bug...
You call their tech support, if you call for help on something simple, they'll help you BUT!!! if you have a real bug or something, you have 1 chance on 1000, the tech support'll report the bug.
If they don't understand the bug, they don't report it.
Each entry point for reporting a bug is checked by Apple.
Do you really call that "new leader" in reports ?
Give me a break...

[citation][nom]simple11[/nom]Their hardware isn't targeted to the 'enthusiast' community ie US. It's targeted to the general public who isn't computer literate and who don't need a quad core CPU or a GOOD dedicated GPU. It's not a bug, but a marketing strategy, and judging by their recent quarter, it's working. Can't blame apple for being smart in 1 category. FLAME ON[/citation]
I beg to differ, although I won't flame you or vote you down. Apple's desktops are available in 2, 4, and 8 core configurations, and have good dedicated GPU's, so that argument is out. I consider myself an enthusiast, however I have no desire to be constantly swapping PCI cards, updating drivers, etc. I want a one-vendor solution. One-vendor solutions *always* work better. Always. I'm a UNIX administrator for a living, FYI. We have IBM servers running AIX, HP servers running HP-UX, and some older SGI servers running IRIX. In all three cases, both the hardware, and the operating system come from the same company - they were designed to work together as one, and they do it very well. You get much greater stability and performance when you don't have to support every stupid piece of hardware available, but rather a select few configurations. It works well. I appreciate my Macbook Pro for it's stable one-vendor solution, and also for it's BSD UNIX underpinnings. Most UNIX admins use either OSX or Linux, and won't even consider Windows.

It really makes me LMAO when I see Windows Fanboi's laughing at the iPhone. Did you forget the disaster that was Kin? Or the complete failure that was Windows Mobile OS? The fact is, Apple makes phone products that people actually want. Microsoft makes phone products that fail, and fail hard. Do you own a Kin? Do you own a Windows Mobile phone? Even as an MS fanboi, I bet you answer 'no' to both questions. Food for thought.

Everything I need to know about Apple security I learned during the DNS RFC vulnerability. You remember? DNS (the specification) has a vulnerability and there is this concerted effort by all DNS implementors to simultaneously announce and release a fix.
Cisco, Microsoft, HP, anyone I can think of that has a DNS implementation knocked this thing out of the park. Fix on day one.
Apple? WTF Apple...they didn't get it fixed for months.
It was a rare moment to have all vendors have an EQUAL flaw and see how they handled it. Apple failed.
