These don't sound like Apple brand Apple stores. They sound like stores that sell Apple products. We have a couple of those in CC Philly- Springboard and Bundy, but Apple Stores are a much different experience (so I've heard)....

Dang!
Only been to the SoHo store (I assume you've been to that one). Yeah, I like going to the Apple store - they actually let you play with the computers, and the computers are actually networked and have cool software you can try out. Contrast this with your average electronics store (CompUSA, Circuit City), where if the computers are even turned on they are almost never networked or have interesting software installed. Can't wait to see the new PowerBooks first hand! I went the day after the keynote but they didn't have any

Yeah, we have some great ones in NYC, including the legendary TekServe (you can get ANYTHING there - especially for older macs). There's another one called Digital Society, though I haven't been to it.
I have only been to the one in the short hills mall in NJ..
very nice store... I love it... my gf was telling me about the one in Soho... and it sounds like I have to visit that one sometime...
but it has been pretty convenient that I work about a half mile away from the mall...
I just bought my iBook there last week, and just received my extra 512MB of RAM today... from OWC...

I've been to 1, and not even the one in the city I live in. Guess working at a Mac store makes me a little less interested, since I get to see most of the new stuff anyways, and play with it a little (we burn in new machines for customers to make sure they don't get a bad machine from the factory. )

Why did I go to so many? Well, I've been to every one on the West Coast because I live here-there's a lot in California if you haven't noticed-and I go traveling a lot. I'm planning on going to at least 50 by the end of this year.
Oh...ibookin'@mwny...YOU KNOW ME. Come on we went to the apple store @ the grove together on a date on SUNDAY!!!!!

Nice...I love the Apple Stores @ the Grove, Glendale and Palo Alto (for some reason). But the best of all: one infinite loop is within walking distance for me!
I went to the Northridge store when it first opened, just to see. I went to The Grove a few times, including its grand opening and the Jaguar event. I never need anything there; I just go to visit with other Mac-flavored people. In fact, the best part of the Jaguar event was waiting in line with strangers. We had a nice discussion about InDesign while waiting to get in. I've also been to lectures/seminars at Apple stores and the Santa Monica office. And I've taken friends to The Grove. On one visit, I managed to break a kiddie program running on an eMac in the "play area", which then crashed the eMac. Oops!
Coincidently, I went to an Apple Store yesterday to have a product exchanged. Since this was after the 10 day policy, however, I ended up getting a white Pro Mouse and a USB extention so I can use my mouse with my right hand with my iBook. A belated holiday gift.
The people there are nice, but some people there seem to be on dream street from time to time, though it's hard to notice when you are surrounded by so many computers.
And I live no more than an hour away from three Apple Stores.

Been to the Durham, NC store at least a dozen times. I live about 45 min. away. Bought my iMac Flat Panel there at the Grande Opening day last March. LOVE IT!!!!!

Hmm...right handed eh? The one thing I love about the Pro Mouse is that it's easy to use ESPECIALLY when you're ambidexterous because it's so simple.
Nice...three apple stores! my parents live no more than 45 minutes away from four.
I've been to one, the Indianapolis store. I'm hoping they'll open one in Louisville, KY since it's only 5 minutes away.
i hope they open some in sydney.
these apple centres are ok. but i like the sound of th apple stores.
although apple australia really does need to get its act into gear.

I went to the one in Tyson's Corner while on a trip, passing through the town. It was annyoing, though, since they didn't have any functioning AlumiBook 17's. They only had a non-functioning on hanging in the window.
I've only been to the NY store which is probably the coolest place I have ever seen. The glass stair case is so cool!!!
I hope to visit the King of Prussia store soon, and I pray that Apple opens a store in Princeton NJ that way I could drive there and work!!

I've been to the one at Woodfield Mall in Schaumburg countless times. Its also great that every time I goto my mom's work, right across the hall/walk way/whatever u wanna call it, is the apple store.
dude, this is an old thread... but anyway...
i've never been to a Apple brand Apple store. i've been to Infinite Systems and Next Byte in Brisbane, they're the only two i can think of.
Apple really needs to open one of their own stores here, that would be awesome!!
