Why not North? Why not Maple Grove? Plymouth has money? LOTS! But, I guess not more than the Southwest Subs.

I wonder how many people will buy an iBook because it matches their outfit?

If they put the store in North Minneapolis it'd be held up every other day I'm quite glad it's not in Maple Grove, that would be way to tempting. It's bad enough Best Buy is 5 minutes from my house

The new Apple Store in Edina will do just fine. I used to work at a furniture store in the area. The mall there gets a TON of traffic, and there is a great deal of disposable income walking in the doors every day. Yes, I agree that it is very close to the Mall of America, but you gotta go where the money is.

I am sorry. I guess Apple is right. We bumpkins up in them northern 'burbs just don't have the cash to buy somethin' that wer fancy! Maybe, everythin' in the outstate is just too redneck them folk.

For those who don't understand: Everything outside the Twin Cities is considered out-state like they are the only thing that matter in Minnesota. What do you expect: they elected a wrestler for governor.
I am fine with them making money BUT don't blatantly obvious about it. I am surprised Apple didn't get together with Gap to design a laptop to match their clothes. SW Burbs would have LUUUUUUUUVed that!
