Steve,

Have you ever had a comp problem that was resolved in 15 minutes? My own experience of the so called Genius bar in London at a certain apple store in a shopping mall was very negative. I could see that they were trying to get done as fast as possible to get through the large number of appointments. Which in itself says that Apple products are lacking in quality like any other computer product. Yes Apple have grown market share but they need to keep focused or it will all come tumbling down. I am a new Mac owner after 20 years of PC but so far have not been that impressed with the Apple products. Yes the OS is cool but overall Apple has not blown me away!

Fanbois getting excited over the opening of a shopping store? Apple is like Monty Burns here, touching fingertips and saying "Excellent!" over such consumer tools. How pathetic.
