Meh. Deleted my post.

The twist is it was still under AppleCare...so they had to service it.
I get it. Some people go through life being perpetually cynical of mice-nuts stuff you come across every day, always on the lookout for ulterior motives of others. That's OK and one's right.
I choose not to, believing most people are good, have a right to be happy, and should be able to freely express that.
If I were in Cook's shoes I'd react the same way, shake the man's hand, and welcome him inside and have a chat, seeing that he probably purchased his Mac 30+ years ago when he was in his 20's to 30's. and has a few stories to tell about it. I understand Cook signed the customer's Mac once inside. I'm happy Cook was able to add a little joy to that man's day as his Mac clearly meant a lot to him going way back to the 1980s.
Fortunately there are people willing to brighten others' day a little. Hat-tip to Mr. Cook for being one of them.

The article states an increase of sales over the past year to be 50% from $4B-$6B. If you dont expect a further increase, there is nothing that can be said that will convince you that sales will increase further.
Tell me why you believe Apple needs an Apple Store if they make a loss by having one.
I guess if people get a thrill out of hating on Apple, they'll do it on an Apple Based forum.

Sick of the cynics, no one’s allowed to have fun ever
I doubt Timmy actually even remembers what that model is out of the top of his head.
I mean, all that is in Timmy's mind are profits, so he probably already lost track of these nostalgic meaningful products.

OH MY GOSH WILL YOU PEOPLE STOP TALKING! Stop reading into things you don’t know. NEWS FLASH: the purpose of a business is to make a profit by delivering a product to satisfy a customer. Welcome to capitalism.

Assuming the worst of a person is not a good way to look at the world
Steve Jobs cared about profits too. He also knew people. That means he didn’t give them what they THOUGHT they wanted. He gave them what he KNEW they wanted.
That was genuine joy and surprise. Steve would have been ...less enthused.
In India, iPhone 14 (standard, 128GB mode, not Pro) is 72.000 rupee which equates to some $875.
A MacBook Air M1 (base config) goes for around $1200 usd.
Average yearly income in India for 2021-2022 was about $1670.
I'm going to assume this post was a joke because people in India definitely can't afford Apple products.
Many people tend to forget about the income disparity.
There are millions of people in India who can afford Apple products.
Also the avg income numbers do not reflect the true earning in a country like India where there is not much in accounted money.
Companies who understand this are able to capture the market share.
Another Apple store is opened in New Delhi today.
As per Tim’s statement they are expecting to generate employment for 200k people via their suppliers in India.

How did you figure that out from the serial number? Wondering the same about my SE…
Never mind, figured it out…
Probably bored of the local race course, oh wait that wasn’t n Miami. Anyway, we? Who do you represent?
