I've had the same, quick buy experience every time too. They make buying super easy - as they should.

I don't have an issue w/ Apple service. As I alluded to earlier, Apple service is expected to be (and likely is) higher than Dell, for many. It's just this over-selling of anything Apple that I find annoying. This pretending that Apple products /services are always the best BUY APPL that they could possibly be is a bit BUY APPL annoying. Plenty of people have had bad experiences with the "Geniuses" being quite a bit less that their billing.

I mean, Apple is fine, and makes a plenty of nice product, but c'mon, the giddy fan-boyness is rather obtuse for this village iconoclast.

Example; I've had some great customer-care/product support from Dell (among others) --you know, where I don't have to drive to a mall and wait in line at (or make an appnt for) a "genius bar" waiting for a "Genius" in a t-shirt to tell me "yeah, that -is- broken." Rather, just pick up the phone, talk to "Sharri" in Inda, and Bang, a replacement part is at my door the next morning. I didn't have to Prove to them that the HD died, or a rubber foot came off. ...But I don't start a thread about it -that would be ghey. --Yes, ghey like this thread.
