Wow! Almost all the Mac stores with theaters have their own satellite?

someone is a smarty pants!

the use of "satellite" to denote "satellite uplink" or "satellite dish" has entered the vernacular and is in very common use. better get used to it!

Yeah, that's why when I'm at social events and I tell people what I do they often ask if I can get them a really good deal on one of those. I have to then explain, "No, I do the other end. The pieces about 22,300 miles above the equator".

At $200+ million for build, launch, insure, one year of opreations, etc. for a modern commecial communications satellite that's a huge investment for Apple!

Vernacular, shmernacular. It's just people being stupid. 🙁

Oh yeah! My wife and I are coming from Madison, WI! I hope to be there at LEAST by 11. That should get us in the door at least. (We'll be the ones with the kid -she's one year old).

Man, is this gonna be great! 😎 😀 😎

Hey, it would be great if any/everyone from macrumors picked a corner and just hung out and talked to kill the time. If anyone is familiar with the layout of the store, pick a spot and I'll be there!😀
