Sherlock yellow pages can't find Apple Store

[karavite]

Just an interesting note - Apple's site lists an Apple store here in CT. I opened Sherlock yellow pages (in 10.2.1) and put in the zip of the store and searched on Apple, Apple Store, computer, Apple computer... and this Apple store just isn't listed (in Sherlock) - though Apple Computer did give me two locations in Manhatten - one may be an apple office and the other is "Big Apple Computers."

Isn't it though! Actually there are many Apple Stores within 100 miles of me (NYC, White Plains...) and none of them show up. I told someone at the Farmington, CT store about this and they thought it was a little ironic too. I'm going to check this now and then for fun and see if it changes. Just to be clear, I think the new Sherlock is awesome - proof that a fat client app is superior to the web/html in many ways - searching eBay with Sherlock is better than eBay's own site for crying out loud and the movie thing is just fantastic - lets me find movies so I can be dragged away from my Mac and actually have a nice date with my poor wife.

I prefer Watson, both for the better translation feature (more available languages) and the TV listings. We have digital cable, and all those interesting channels up above 100 aren't included in the print TV listings.
But I do use both Sherlock and Watson regularly.

I think it's very interesting how Sherlock has become a Watson knock-off... no longer used for what it was developed for... searching for files on your computer.

Although I am very happy with Apple's new search tool... very simple easy loading and functional. Exactly whaat I want when I'm looking for files on my drive(s).

As an interesting side note, the user interface (minus Aqua) is really similar to the original Find Tool in OS 8. Which I'm fine with because again, it's the most useful.
