Never went in one. - Not even felt tempted to.
I'm probably to old to be impressed by such things.
If it had a CLR logo on the door I would check it out for sure...

Oh no, they planted Tony with the iChip. The device that ruins your taste in technology and makes you impressed by the color white!

omg, all the Mac hate. I love my Mac, it is way better than a PC. It has next to no wires, looks nice, great screen resolution.
And man, the iStores are so cool. You can actually touch an iPad while you are there. I love how the helpers all use the actual Apple technology in the store. And they wear blue shirts, to contrast with the white decor.
Then you have those areas where they have people training mom and pop on how to use their Mac. Customer service at it's best.
I don't understand all your hate.[this is where my funky sig would go. But I don't have one.
So all you get is this crappy text]Comment

I just like to think of all the panicked Mac fans dealing with malware for the first time flooding the Genius bar.
They are useful stores for getting hands on an iPad though. At least, if you're not there on a weekend when the crowds overwhelm the place.

I had a Mac in my college years...eventually got tired of waiting two years past the PC release date to get a game, if it ever came. I switched. Shortly later, was building my own rigs...have never looked back.
Oh, and there's this http://www.cainslair.com/showthread.php?t=19872:
You won't catch me in one of those scenes: guaranteed. Similar to a Chuck e Cheeze, but without the pizza.For Apple fans, the brand triggers a reaction in the brain that's not unlike that of religious devotees, according to a BBC documentary series that cites neurological research.
The neuroscientists ran a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) test on an Apple fanatic and discovered that images of the technology company's gadgets lit up the same parts of the brain as images of a deity do for religious people, the report says.
The first episode of the documentary shows Apple employees "whipped up into some sort of crazy, evangelical frenzy" at the recent opening of an Apple store in London.

I'll tell you why! This latest location I'm at has three Mac lovers out of 5 of us.
I watched one of them working on a Linux AND a Solaris machine. They, from command line mind your, started up the browser so they could navigate the file structure and then couldn't understand why I laughed my butt off that they felt more comfortable in a GUI.
On another one, the guy couldn't understand why it was not even feasible for the DoD to consider using Macs to replace their current C2 infrastructure of Windows based servers and clients. "But it would run so much better" was the response.
This was just today!
Don't get me wrong either, these are some very intelligent individuals, but they are dedicated Mac users and they just don't get it! Plus they don't understand why I think they are funny and don't consider them real system administrators.[IMG]http://thepebkac.net/images/sigs/Outdoors_sig.jpg[/IMG]

You mean they don't know "ls"?Originally posted by DougBob View Post
Mac's do have some nice products and o using a Next Step/BSD based OS is huge leap forward. There are a couple of good things I like about my wifes G4 lappy. I totally dig the magnetic AC adapter. On my Dell lappy the cord falls out all the time it's friggin annoying. On her Mac it doesn't. Plus if it's on the table and you trip over the cord it just comes right off since it's very shallow and magnetically held. the lappy won't fly off the table. that was a kinda cool design.
Now I don't like how controlling they are about software.
Basically the way I view it is
Mac's are good for people who don't really want to know technology. It works like an appliance.
Windows is for people who want to game or because of exposure via business or school are comfortable around Windows
Unix is for people who really really want to know whats going on at very low level of the OS
Of course there are exceptions
I've met a Windows guy who was a totally insane Perl coder
I've met Mac hardware hackers
The end of the day its your computer so who cares.
Funny story. My wife's company is Mac based. Once my laptop battery was dead and I needed to SSH into my Linux box. So I grabbed my wifes G4 opened a root terminal and SSH'd to my box. I guess I left the root term in the task bar. The next day an IT guy was helping my wife with something and he got all bent out of shape when he saw the root terminal window in the task bar. My wife got a stern talking to...Comment

Hey cool Obi
Also I ran across this today
Apple's iOS 4 Hardware Encryption Cracked
All I know is what's in these two blog posts from Elcomsoft. Note that they didn't break AES-256; they figured out how to extract the keys from the hardware (iPhones, iPads). The company "will be releasing the product implementing this functionality for the exclusive use of law enforcement, forensic and intelligence agencies."
