Accordion City is Getting an Apple Store!

Guile just told me that Accordion City has been designated to get its

very own Apple Store. I don’t know how local Apple retailers —

especially long-time non-chain Apple dealers like CPUsed and Carbon Computing — feel about this.

Apple Stores tend to be way funkier than your typical computer retailer. Pictured above is the Ginza (Tokyo) store.

(By the way, single geek guys: unlike most computer stores, Apple Stores are frequented by women, and often cute artsy ones.)

  • I had to spend significant time last Sunday at the Apple Store getting my laptop fixed. Every single person working there (all male) and a good deal of the customer base (all genders) were quite cute, though granted many in that geeky way that may only appeal to a subsection. But it's my subsection dammit. And now I want another excuse to go back to the Apple Store.
