I bought a $1000 plus gaming laptop for my son and exactly a year and a month later the hinges bust off the thing. I am so ticked off and will never buy another one. Too cheaply made and the fact that it happened a month after warranty was the kicker. I keep hearing my dad talking about companies designing parts to last just long enough. They don't care if some people claim warranty they have done the numbers and if it can last a year they don't care. Sad.
