Anyone know if this is a more widespread issue in the industry or just isolated cases of bad batches of batteries?

Batteries are a problem across the board. I've witnessed recalls of not just many a computer battery, but also camera batteries, camcorders, you name it.

Presumably Apple has a contract to cover this recurring industry wide battery problem.

And yes, NEVER had a problem getting top notch customer service at Apple. Period. One of the reasons I keep buying Apple products: I don't have time to dick around with bad customer service.

Since Apple and other hardware vendors contract out their machine which are made with generic parts my guess is Apple has no more problems with these kinds of things than other design houses. Why would Apple be any different?

The pro desk tops are another thing altogether. Again though, my guess is they probably have less problems (my poorly designed Quicksilver not with standing).

Now if you are talking software, obviously Apple is king,
