Things I Learned At The Apple Store

From M.B. Darden

I passed an Apple Store. It had recently been renovated, and I had never been there. (In fact, I’d never been in an Apple Store anywhere.) I went in. First, I’m not a techie or a remotely skilled computer user. I have no strong feelings about Apple. I went in without preconceptions. I went in really to avoid leaving the mall — it was freezing out & snowing & I was hoping (dreaming) that a few minutes later it would be a lot warmer and not snowing. Here’s what I think I learned or observed or concluded on my first trip to the Apple Store…

• Michael Dell & Other Consumer PC-Makers: It’s Over. Apple Has Won
• Apple “Geniuses” Are Chick Magnets
• Apple Geniuses Are In Fact Geniuses
• Bridging The Generation Gap May Be Possible, After All
• Starbucks, Don’t Get Too Cocky
• New Best Place To Furnish Your Home
• Black (In fashion) Is Back
• I’m A Lot Less Savvy And Smart Than I Thought

Read the full article for the specifics of his list. I find his observations to be interesting considering they are coming from someone who knows very little about tech and even less about Apple.
