Macs at BestBuy.com Pulled

[Centris 650]

I had gone to one of the Best Buy stores near me. The guy there was telling me he didn't know that BB would be selling Apples anywhere. When I told him that there were stores selling them he then told me that I needed to keep checking BestBuy.com because when they were available online then they'd be available at all BB stores.

Maybe the site was pulled because not every store is selling yet?

OBTW, he didn't speak very highly of Apple nor did he know the name of "that all in one colored computer they came out with a few years ago." (the iMac, duh!) He also refered to Apple's new generation computer as the G4.

Sigh

😕 I thought the word from BB (and Apple) was that this was a test program and in only certain markets/stores, which would mean:

A. Not all BB will be carrying Macs even if the online store does.

B. The online store is probably considered internally as a "store" (dealt with in a B&M sense) or a separate div, and therefore under a different agreement with Apple.

Either way, the S.C. BB guy that Centris 650 had to deal with is wrong...

You have people calling themselves PeeCee Ho's. How appropriate.

Anyways, stopped by the BB on Lex & 86th in Manhattan yesterday.
They had beautiful macs there.
But what a shame.
The 12" PB had not been setup, so i took it upon myself to set it up. Could not even register cause they had no online access.

There was no charger for the two other laptops (TiBook and Ibook) so they were dyeing.
Also a PeeCee Ho (i really like that expression now) put a price tag by the Ibook while i was there. Only the price tag happend to be for the 12" PB.

Come On apple educate these whores. Or get some reps there or else this will just crash and burn again.
Apples are much less attractive to people if they are dead. And you can't really enjoy the fun of the iapps if there is nothing to work with.
Throw a few stock photos into iphoto a couple of tunes into itunes or set them all up with airport so that people can atleast browse and see ITMS.

And if anyone here works at BB, prep those Macs.
Shove those PeeCee Hos aside and set those ababies up.
