I earlier noted the change in desktop buttons on computers at the retail stores. They’ve now been simplified into Concierge, Need Help? and Classes+Events. Clicking on one of the icons takes you to the Genius Bar appointment system, notifies a Mac Specialist that you need assistance, or displays the store’s events calendar. The Help button turns the screen a wild green color with the smiling face of a Mac Specialist, and advises the visitor, “We’ll be there as fast as we can.” The buttons are an Apple customization of the dock controller, but you can have your own similar buttons using the Docktop application.

Okay! Time to find that application on the stores computers and replace the picture… :^)
Good Luck!
or changes the color!
I woudn’t say the screen turns a WILD green. It’s actually a somewhat faint green. On the laptops, it’s actually pretty hard to notice the change when viewing from the sides.
All that this program does is change the screen cover. It never in any way notifies any off the apple store employees, because I waited 20 minutes for someone to help me…
Do you know how to do this on your own mac?
