Heck open a muji in aberdeen lol

Damn I wouldn't want to imagine an apple store @ metrotown, oakridge which isn't even that popular a destination besides the food court and kin's farm has an apple store and that one is packed all the time too. People are just playing on the ipads and stuff and only on the weekends do you ever see people walking out with purchases LOL

Metro = too many north face bombers walking around, ruins it for me LOL not saying rc doesn't though just saw these punks get arrested outside timmy ho's 2 weeks ago there.

how many people are carry/buying those compared to Apple products?
only the rich can buy $3000 purses while people who have $10 will spend that $10 at the apple store to buy something...

It seems a little strange to have so much fanfare over a store...like a normal store where you go to give people money for stuff.

it seems mac users/apple fanboys has created a lifestyle or culture based on their products

its only a matter of time until South Park makes an episode about this..

i like my iphone 4, but otherwise ill stick to my windows OS..

well besides the phone, the other apple product i have is my 2nd gen shuffle that i used for my work out

Apple fanboys are sheep. People were clapping and cheering when the Apple store opened their doors on the iPhone 4 launch day. Embarrassing.

You can bash Apple however you want....but at the end of the day....whoever makes the Mula = Win.

Just to elaborate a little more.....As much as we all hate the pretty packaged computer vs the PC....the sucker point is the maket EATS this style. Would you take a smart soficated office OL girl that's still wearing the 90's bell-bottom jeans? Or the hip designer girl with the hot body and the pretty face? People are quite shallow at the end of the day and shiny colourful multi-touch screens just draws people like flys to Fluorescent lamps in the middle of nowhere.
