Apple Store Rehab

Wednesday, September 16th 8:16pm Matt

I am really surprised at how much my bad Apple Store experience affected me. To top it all of, I realized we forget to get our “free printer” as well. So today I was having lunch with another friend and suggested we go into the store.

I didn’t see the woman who “helped” me, and didn’t want to. All I saw was nice Apple Store employees. Aging hippies, hopeless nerds, those are my friends. I started to feel better.

However we did spend about a half hour in there wandering around and despite a ton of employees I realized nobody asked us if we needed help. We didn’t, so maybe it’s actually that they’ve learned to read body language better.

It’s interesting that in the entire store there was only one Mac Pro, one Apple TV, one Mac Mini, one 24″ display, and one 30″ display. Isn’t that odd? I was pointing that out and saying you could tell a lot about Apple’s future direction by looking at what they have in the store. MacBooks, MacBooks, MacBooks.

I sort of long for the days when there was a mini theater in the store, and a kids area. But, I guess times change.
