I’m going to have to start buying my Apple stuff downunder. 186AU for a Nano is 17% less than I can get if for here in the U.S.

the few hipsters in Berlin already have their Macs.
right now there’s much more money to be made in Munich.

haha, yeah because conservative provincial munich is so much more inline with the hip image that apple is trying to portrait then lets say berlin!

This is Munich/Bavaria, not Germany. There’s a reason they started in Munich, and not in Berlin, Hamburg, Frankfurt, Cologne etc….

Wow. I remember when you could never “buy” anything in a “place.” But that was before Steve Jobs invented the store. Now I buy things in places all the time, like my iPod, and a loaf of bread, and this can of tomato soup, and my other iPod.

Know what it would be like without Steve’s leadership and vision? I’ll tell you. We’d have all starved to death in the dark ages or something. I’ve had a nice B&W publicity photo of him above my desk for the past couple years, but last month I finally got the spotlight on the ceiling above it hooked up to the circuit that runs behind that wall. I didn’t bother with a switch: the photo of Steve is highlighted all the time.

If you go to Munich, don’t waste time trying Bavarian beer and seeing the sights: visit the Apple Store. I also wanted to add, this comment is dedicated to Steve Jobs and Apple, without whom I’d have probably just thrown myself off a bridge a long time ago.

Apple is already taking this to the bank. By creating an “elite” product image, it is more attractive to the user. And they have just enough models to cover the bases. By simplifying their product line, they make it much easier for a user to decide which computer is for them. As much as I hate Apple’s proprietary system, it is really working for them. For that, I say congrats.

Apple has gotten the point. SIMPLE AND EASY AND MODERN
