No compensation for that, from Apple or anyone else.

Authority to poison because it's cheaper than making clean machines, but no responsibility.

um, lol...

I'm not sure about the rest of you, but in my instance the computer would have greater cause for complaint than myself when it comes to which one of us is emitting bad smells.

I have one and it doesn't stink at all. Should I be jealous?

Does he use a Mac Pro?

Blame everything on the Chinese

Benzene is a clear colorless liquid at room temperature. 

According to the the HSDB is has a Gasoline-like odor; rather pleasant aromatic odor. Odor threshold = 4.68 ppm. 

Benzene is a common pollutant in ambient air due to emissions from mobile sources (e.g automobiles). I don't know the circumstances of the test, but given Greenpeace's adverse relationship with Apple, they cannot be viewed as unbiased.

So... if people are being nauseated by fumes from their Mac, I suspect it might be chemicals other than benzene. 

FYI I do not own or use any Apple hardware or software.

they will continue to sell the units at a high profit, cos those mac suckers dont care if it kills them, it only makes them look cooler!

I have had a new Mac Pro for about a month now, a dual quad version with an ATI HD2600 and have not noticed any irregular odours emitting from it.

There may be credence to the explanation that it is only those computers manufactured in certain area's that emit the problem odours.

Mine was purchased in Dublin, Ireland

That does not surprise me. I actually think China is doing some of this on purpose. "Die Capitalist Pigs, we will poison you and your pets too."
They are overpriced too, too bad you can't get one with a single Core2 and save allot of cash. I would be interested.

I was wondering how good these alu. cases and fans are and now I know.... New xeons must work in a spacier case

my personal congratulations to sylvie for this daring article. 

am bookmarking this page to see macfanbois flaming their guts off their smelling holes.

Start fitting Apple Macintoschs with catalytic converters and exhausts?
