i havent seen one apple store in the GTA. there is no way they are going to open one of these in my town of Orangeville, Ontario

A Toronto Apple store is a possibility because of the large market. They wouldn’t imagine opening up something in Orangeville, or Markham, or Aurora.
There are Mac specialty shops downtown though, but you gotta search for them. Carbon Computing, CPUsed, Computer Systems Centre to name a few.

The Apple Centres in Aus aren’t that bad.
I have a next byte 5mins down the road from me, and it’s a good store. Doesn’t look anywhere near as nice as the Apple Stores / Mini Apple Stores (lot’s of blue, and ho-hum designed POS), but still a good store.

Too bad they don’t have any Apple stores in Delaware. I don’t think they ever will either…

Might be nice to have an Apple store within 200 miles of Oklahoma City. Right now it’s either Dallas (200), Denver (600), or Kansas City (300). Last time I was in the Apple section of the OKC CompUSA there were lots of people drooling and wanting to buy the new iMacG5 but they had nothing to sell.
