I Bit the "Apple..."

     Good news for me.  The "Genius" at the Apple Store fixed my syncing problem, got my contacts back on the iphone, and put all of my "dates" back in the right place.  All of the time I was waiting for my turn at the Genius Bar, I looked around at the "people concentrated" (translate: crowded) store and its inhabitants and what they seemed to be doing there.
     Of course, there were the people who were wandering through the mall, and stopped in to play with the ipads and computers on display; many of them had baby strollers and packages with them which says to me, "not a buyer."  Lots of people had boxes of accessories in their hands; iphone cases, earbuds, speakers, etc. They were in a separate line to pay, or if they were lucky, someone with a charge "thingy" came to them.
     There were lots and lots of people like me, waiting to have their computers and other devices fixed....wouldn't you think that would scare some buyers away?  Maybe they should have put us in a separate room.  Actually, they want everyone to know that they can fix any problem that arises; thus, the Genius Bar.
     Best of all  were the folks who were taking lessons on the Mac computer system, iphoto, iphone operation, etc.  The Apple people are so very patient and knowledgable that it is fun shopping and doing business with them.
     Oh, I forgot, there was a double line outside the store for people who are buying the new iphone4, which has been acknowledged to have a glitch.  Wouldn't you think they would wait for the 4.1 to come out?
     My Genius said it is like that all day, every day.....and that is just one store in Manhattan Beach. It boggles my mind.  I wish I had Apple stock!
