The opening of a new Apple store is not only a very "American" experience, but almost like a religion, even in the UK:

I love the reporter's line at the end, "It's incredible, the only way I can describe it, it's a big store"  ;D
Have I lost my way?

Nice to know we didn't waste our money educating him, isn't it. ;D

I think I'll avoid the place, I doubt my sanity could stand it.

I love quotes like that, when news events are running for something like the Raoul Moat showdown and nothing is happening some real gems are said  ;D

Some of the stores are stunning architecturally though, its just the people in them that ruins it although the staff are really helpful tbh.

The stores look great, shame the company are such control freaks and its run by the other Dark Lord of the Sith, Steve Jobs.


esh

I agree, a lot of stores would be vastly improved taking a few lessons from some of the Apple shops.
