Gosh, you think the Apple store staff might actually been *helpful*,

Highly unlikely. Or could this be another variation of Laptop
Hunters? Somebody complaining about Apple who did not actually step
inside an Apple Store? Misinformation planted by M$?
After all this is CIO magazine. They cater to bone heads.
Note their story on Apple's 2nd quarter 12% gain (while the industry
slumped 3%) is not attributed to anything Apple did: "But I don't
know how much of this is Apple's doing. The real change, I think, is
more of consumer confidence." That is horse shit. Consumer confidence
did not rebound in the 2nd quarter. If anything, people were cutting
back and looking at expenses carefully. A careful shopper is more
likely to buy the better product.
