Apple Opens First Canadian Store in Toronto
ElectroBot writes "I received a email today with an invitation to the Grand Opening of the first Apple Store in Canada. The Store is opening on May 21st at 9:30am at the Yorkdale Shopping Center in Toronto. There's also a contest for a Digital Lifestyle Collection valued at $2,985. On top of that the first 1,500 people to arrive at the opening will receive a free Apple T-shirt."
As if Canadians have any use for a t-shirt! The store should be giving out Apple toques.
Now can we close the three in Minnesota, so I can skate around the local sales tax when ordering from the Apple Store online? ... er... I mean... so I can declare the sales taxes myself when I file, as I always do when ordering products through the mail or Internet, in full compliance with current laws, rather than having the tax added to the purchase price right away?
(whew!)
Information wants to be anthropomorphized.
Beauty!
I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate.
Yeah, but look at those prices! Just about every product they sell seems to cost more up in the Canada store than down in the US stores.
It's like Apple thinks a dollar from a Canadian isn't worth quite as much as a dollar from an American!
Why do they hate Canadians like that?
Why doesn't he open a Canadian Store in the US? Why should I have to travel all the way to Toronto to buy a Canadian?
We've already heard there's a new keyboard layout in Tiger called Canadian that's identical to the U.S. layout but displays a Canadian Flag (or is that Canada Flag?) in the menubar.
To celebrate the opening of the new Apple store, 10.4.1 will change the first item under the Apple menu to "Aboot This Mac..." when the Canada layout is selected.
My God, it's Full of Source!
