		<description>Right ON!  And they sure need to really focus on 3rd Party Software like RapidWeaver, FotoMagico  plus a myriad of others. Then they need to beef up their Training and 1-to-1 experts on those 3rd party softwares rather than just the Pure Apple Softwares.

The stores are now weak on Training except the Pure Apple stuff. I have found a copuple of Apple traineers who want to go beyond the ordinary line of training to assist me on such apps as RapidWeaver and Plugins and Filemaker Pro , etc.</description>

		<description>Oh, how I wish they&#039;d make a special area for one-on-one training, rather than have it smack dab in the middle of the hustle and bustle of a busy retail store -people trying out iPod boom boxes, noisy kids, etc. - hardly conducive for quality learning time. If not separate space,  at least a hefty dose of acoustic isolation seems in order. For a company that prides itself on user experience, this seems quite the oversight for Apple.</description>

		<description>Worry about Windows 7?    LOL, that&#039;s a good one.    Win 7 is Just Vista SP2.

I am not calling for Apple to release Snow Leopard for all PCs.   But it wouldn&#039;t matter, they are going to do it.   It is time.   All this work, all these years.   The time is coming soon.   You thought the transition to Intel was freaky.   You ain&#039;t seen nothing yet.   If Apple had Snow Leopard optimized, it would run far, far better on a typical XP machine than anything Microsoft could come out with in a million years.   And the hardware is so good now, it will continue to outsell all the PC garbage.    It is a different era than the last time they allowed cloning.   Apple is about to take the entire computer market.  Watch it, and forget I even told you.   This is also why they are focusing on software, it&#039;s going to be a major focus when Snow Leopard ships, because there will be some version for the garden variety generic PC with the poky BIOS, etc...  It won&#039;t be as good as an Apple Mac, but it will obliterate Windows once and for all.</description>

		<description>I definitely enjoy getting hands on with all the new Apple hardware, but when I&#039;m not in a position to shell out for a new Mac or iPod -- or even for a new case or pair of headphones -- I do want to consider additional software. 

The last time I was in an Apple Store, I poured over the available software titles that were crammed on a shelf in the back . . . and I remember thinking, &quot;This is a pain, and I know there&#039;s way more titles than these here -- I&#039;ll have to browse online.&quot; 

This is a great move.</description>
