I've only seen the one. That was in the largest mall in Hawaii. I'm a
Mac fan, but this place was the furthest from exciting. I was even
looking for new and exciting things for my Mac, but nothing jumped out
at me. I was going to use the idea that this place was as exciting as
a library, but it didn't come close.
Maybe it was my fault of being in Hawaii. A lot of things looked fun.
The Apple store wasn't one of them. Of course the food court wasn't
either.

Okay, Jeff, here goes. Apple generates lots of "excitement" at their
stores when they release a new product.
Not just then. The stores are very well designed to showcase their
product and provide lots of time for hands-on experimenting. Unlike
other stores Apple is perfectly fine with folks using the gear
intensively. Some travelers even use Apple Stores like internet
cafes. Customers interact and swap insights like no other store I
have ever seen. The store is almost like a club. I once needed to
know something about the innards of a new model. I went to the Apple
Store and took a Mac partially apart. Nobody seemed to mind. All
this produces an exciting and appealing atmosphere.
Meanwhile at the Zune Store they will be holding a seminar on "How
To Use the Group Policy Editor to Manage Local Computer Policy in
Windows." Cool. Or is that "cold?"
