15 minutes by bike to the nearest Apple Authorized Reseller (we don't have any actual Apple stores here). Actually, there are 3 of them within a ~2 minute bike ride from each other.
 
20 minute train journey into Manchester Piccadilly train station, walk down into the Arndale and up to the Apple Store for a further 5-10 minutes. Easy peasy :D
 
Nearest is Aspen Grove about a 3 minute bike ride away. Cherry Creek is about an hour bike ride away. If I must get there by less enjoyable means... Aspen Grove= 3 mins away. Cherry Creek=20 mins away.

Ah the Aspen Grove apple store! My first ever mac experience.

I live about a 25-45 (depending on pace/route) minute walk from the Shibuya Apple store, and its about 15-20 minuets by train.

Wondering how long it would take to ride a bike to the Shibuya store...
 
One within walking distance here in Burlington as well as stores in Boston (flagship store), Cambridge, Chestnut Hill, Natick, and Salem NH all within 30 minute rides. At least 3 more within a 1 hour ride. Apple has eastern Massachusetts pretty well covered.

And we have Apple certified techs onsite at work to look at the work-owned laptops as well.
 
From the front steps of home to this Apple store (the closest by a long shot) it's about 65-70 minutes give or take with traffic. Pleasant drive though and the time flies by pretty quick.
 
I'd probably get to the only Apple store in my country in just under 90 mins. And I'm probably lucky to live that close. 2 hours easy if I couldn't drive and had to wait for bus/train.

'tis a joke.
 
It's the Trafford Centre Apple Store for me. In light-to-average traffic it's about 45 minutes. At peak times it'll be closer to an hour. If I leave from work it's not too bad, the motorway's only about 2 miles from the office. From home I almost spend as much time getting to the M6 as I do on the bugger! :p

Although I do remember the day I bought my first Mac, coming home seemed to take hours :D

I know exactly what you mean! I bought my Macbook from there and the drive is about 30 minutes. I actually opened the box in the car I was that excited :D
 
Approx. 15 minutes from the West County Apple Store in St. Louis, but I drive right past it going to and from work every day so I can stop on the way home if I need anything. About 20 minutes away from the one in the Galleria mall but that one is a bitch to get to.
 
One under 30 minutes, two about an hour away and two others probably 90 minutes away. (by train, driving through london would add HOURS to the journey)

Lakeside, Bluewater, Regent street, Brent Cross, White City.

For the ooohs and aaaaahs:

Thats my local store, Regent Street, less than 10 minute walk, all the others listed are within 45 minutes by car.

tend to go to Bluewater as the staff are friendlier there. :):)
 
at my grandma's house there is not one in the whole state. I would just have to hope there was a AARC close by. Home it is ~35-60 min

But then again I'm mostly Hackintoshing because of there not being a express card slot under 17 inch and $2500. The only one I can afford is 13 inch w/ mirror instead of LCD.

That place attracts Apple fanboys like flies on ****....I was in London and in that area trying to find the HMV store to get the Top Gear Polar Special Blu Ray. I was completely lost and had no idea where the HMV was, and I didn't want to turn on roaming on my iPhone since it's so expensive, so I just started walking down some street hoping I'd find it, and lo and behold, it's the Regent Street Apple Store. So I walked in, joined their WiFi network on my phone (all the display Macs were taken) found where I needed to go on Google Maps and off I went. Of all places for me to accidentally wander in to, it was the Apple Store.
 
About 30 mins to the nearest apple reseller, nearest proper apple store is over 2 hours away in another country :eek:
 
The nearest Apple store for me is in Linux. About 45-60 minutes one way. I've never been to an Apple store before. My local Best Buy doesn't sell Macs for some reason. I even asked where they were.
