Interesting that several people mention Samsung refrigerators. They got a huge fine from our Government for posting false economy ratings. We have a near new $5000 Samsung fridge with all the options, and the display screen on the front that purportedly shows the current fridge and freezer temperatures is nonsense. When checked they are way off. Samsung admitted that there was no sensor attached to them, they were just a display indicating what the temperature "should" be. They offered a full refund to those who complain, no questions asked.
I find the company to be opportunistic, deliberately misleading, and in some cases outright dishonest - as did our courts on several occasions. We no longer buy Samsung monitors, all have failed in a short time.
When you look at it closely, Apple is also dishonest. They have claimed for years to sell a 64 bit system, way back to the first G5s. They made a big fuss about it at the time. The only real 64 bit systems are the current ones with Mountain Lion. The earlier versions all had 64 bit processors with 32 bit support circuitry. Those produced later booted as 32 bit, but SOME could be forced to boot as 64.
The most successful companies are those who can tell the most convincing lies, not always those who produce the best products.
