They would. Apple has a history of meeting expectations, so people would line up, as always.
And then, if the quality was truly poor, they'd bitch to high heavens, overrun the Apple forums, overwhelm Steve Jobs' e-mail with complaints, and stop buying.
The tech press would go into a frenzy, as they do whenever there's any issue with Apple, positive or negative. Whether product release or minor bug, the tech press loves to make a mountain out of an appleseed.
There's nothing like a brand enthusiast with disappointed high expectations. Fans of competing products who bash Apple fans don't know what they're talking about.
