The whiny MacBook Pro does indeed get the grease

Swarm of angry beesI think I can sum up Apple’s new attitude in one word: terse. Following hot on the heels of the yellowing MacBook admissions comes another short, sweet mea culpa. For your reading pleasure, we present Apple Knowledge Base Article #303365 (again, in entirety):

If your 15-inch MacBook Pro emits a high-pitched buzzing sound, please contact AppleCare for service.
Just remember, that high-pitched sound could be an angry swarm of killer bees (no doubt loosed from OS X’s Sync Services folder). AppleCare professionals are trained and prepared for just such an eventuality.

I must admit that this new Apple image of laconicism leaves something to be desired. I wonder if they fired the previous guy. Perhaps he has just moved on to better things.

By Apple standards, this post is already much too long.

Well, that's a nice move. I wonder when they are going to release another one for the deffective right speaker on most of the PBP which delivers that creepy, distorted sound.

What about whining MacBooks? The whine is really starting to get to me.
