Just finished my first visit to a Mac Store. Boy, what a snob-a-torium. Definitely a elitist attitude at that place. However, I like the new local Microsoft Store, some may hate their software but the people there were really nice and friendly with no pressure to buy.
I contrast this with the local Amiga stores that I used to visit back in the day. One place in particular was just a fun, layed-back place for computer lovers to congregate. I remember Saturday afternoons the place would be filled with Amiga enthusiast exchanging stories, dicussing software, trying out the new games and checking out the latest Fred Fish disks for goodies. Good times.
Yeah I miss those times too.
Here in the Netherlands we had some good shops, always took the time to tell just about everything when you wanted to buy something.
Usually you end up with a bit more than you were planning.
