| So I went down to the Apple Store today to ask a question of the Mac Geniuses there (which by the way they were stumped on -- PLEASE see this thread: http://www.macosx.com/forums/showthr...threadid=13705 ). Anyway, in reference to my problem, the guy asked if I had posted on the Apple discussion boards. I had not, so he recommended that I post there. Then he said that there was another good place that I could get information on Mac OS X. I thought to myself, "Haha that would be funny if he said MacOSX.com". Then he says, "MacOSX.com". ![]() Now how's THAT for a recommendation? An Official Apple Mac Genius (as opposed to my unofficial status) recommends this forum on where to get help! That's awesome. And I have to say that he's right in recommending it. Everyone is awesome in helping, here.Besides that awesome recommendation, there were some other observations I made in the Apple store. One: they had a "Everything is Easier on a Mac" sign near the door that goes backstage and which is near the "Etc" section. They also do have the "Here's to the crazy ones" poem near the Mac Genius bar. I hope they keep that. And specifically about the iMac -- in the window, they were obviously showing off the iMac, but they had about 3 hologram posters surrounding the iMac on a spinning table that when you walked by it looked like the iMac was moving its screen up and down. Oh, and I have to mention: those iMacs are MUCH better for display purposes. Because I'm kind of tall, most of the computers are too low for me since I'm standing instead of sitting. But with the new iMacs, I can point the screen up to me, so I can stand up straight with the screen pointing straight at me. That screen is just awesome. ![]() But the main event was definitely that the Mac Genius recommended MacOSX.com . ![]()
