Yeah it was highly disappointing. I'd always used Intel CPUs just because I picked one chipset and stuck with it. I even put up with the instability issues from the 13 for a while. At first I figured something else in the PC was dying on me. Until it reached a point where I literally couldn't run certain applications because it would always crash that the news articles started coming out about the chip issues.
