Oh my GOD this store is jammed (hi from the Apple Store in Chicago)
My SO's in line, I'm here at an iBook G4 looking up directions for later and there are a million people in here.

Merry Christmas and happy all that! :hi:

3. I was in the Apple Store in Seattle today--
tons o people, but it went really fast--mainly because I was just getting a gift card. They had people pulling us out of the line if we had payment by plastic. Sent my receipt to me already by email. I was relieved!
Gap was not crowded either.
The worst thing was all the people trying to park.

Cheers.

12. Nah -- I was using the iBook to figure out some directions.
I already have an iBook, and my SO was in line getting some gifts for his daughter.
(I'm home now.)

I didn't mind the wait so much as the massive crowds...

6. You think that store is crowded...
the one in SoHo in Manhattan is crowded every second of every day. it could be 12am on a Tuesday and there would still be people waiting at the Genius Bar.

15. I love the Apple Store
I look up my friends all over the world when I'm there and ask, "Hi! Need anything from the Apple Store?" I taunt my Parisian friend something awful--there's an Apple Store in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, but not Paris, France.

16. Well, Wauwatosa is right on the edge of Milwaukee...
And, luckily, I live in Milwaukee, so I can go anytime.

That store is "church."
The Chicago store, by comparison, is a cathedral.
