Problem is, they can support up to a certain level then even they need to refer you to Core :( @mn there are some excellent resellers like C3 in Cresta, Johannesburg.

Thanks for the comments. It does seem that I am not the only one thinking that core stinks. I am honestly not sure how they get to become distributors of such high profile products in South Africa. It really is a pity, as there is such a huge market and potential here, that it COULD actually work :( Stii & Jason. Thanks for the comments.

Freakin stupid. A family member of mine works for Incredible Connection, and she says that in a few of their stores, they setup the Wii in the window, and got people to play from the outside. They said they sold sh*t loads of Wii's because of it. I haven't heard much about the Core Group, but from the brief few things I have heard, they sound like 1 stupid corporate import company, that hasn't got a clue. ;-) Agree?

It is one beautiful and solid piece of machine. There is one huge problem with Apple in SA and that is the Core group. Their service stinks. Talk to anyone who has had business dealings with their executive director and ask them what they thought. Shocking that such a great product can be tainted by such a lousy company. I'm living in fear for the day that one of my Macs have issues. There is no company in George that supports Mac and that means I'll have to send it away. To them. Not a nice thought.
