BBspot - Apple Stores to Begin Charging Entrance Fee

Quote:
"Part of the move was to limit crowds to keep the stores safe, but also we wanted to keep the right kind of people in the stores," said vice president of retail outlets, Vince Sciopiano. "By 'right kind of people' I mean true Apple customers with money, willing to pay just to look at our newest wares."

Even the elitist Apple snobs wouldn't do this. Almost had me there for a moment though.

Actually...thats pretty damn funny. And not that far from the possibility of truth

This reminds me of the hotel in dubai that charges $75 just to enter it and take a look around.

Damn, I wouldn't even pay my wife a $75 fee for entrance.

Say goodbye to our beloved planet. Because there is
alot more money to be made in emitting greenhouse
gasses, than curtailing emissions.

Get out of the box, then recycle it.
