For those who know me it won't come as a big surprise but I am a huge fan of Apple. I have owned Mac's since the bubbly looking blue iMac and have been a solid supporter since. I won't go into all the reasons that I am hooked but for those of you who own one you know what I would say. The company pays attention to detail and they deliver all aspects of their product and image with poise and subtlety. I happened to be in NYC last week and visited the new Apple store on 5th avenue for the first time. I took an interesting picture that you can see below and thought I would post it. One of the most interesting things about the store is that there are no cash registers. None that I could see at least. All of the sales agents have a handheld device and they can ring you out right where you stand in the store. Just another way that Apple makes it really easy to not only use but to buy their products. If you want a sneak peek at what the store looks like you can take a virtual tour by clicking here.
