I love Best Buy. Especially after dark. The lighting is low, everything is so clean that it gleams, and everywhere you look is something doing something fascinating. OK, so im a Geek Squad groupie. But our Hoover store also happens to be filled with some sexy cute young people with a passion for what they do. Even the pretty girls running the cash registers have movie star smiles.
Roving gangs of smiling Geeks constantly want to help customers. A few nights ago, i had decided pretty much what i wanted in a new camera. I was shown a big selection in a variety of colors and features, and we even tried them out. I think i want the wifi one, but i have to make sure it has the face-lock-onto feature and image stabilization that we need because Tim has shaky hands.
The various readers are displayed all over the store. Right now, Nook Colors are just inside the doors. They keep Apple things in their own mini shop, but Apple TVs are everywhere. I want the giant one sooooo badly! The other evening, i lost Tim. Whenever he goes more than a few feet away, i can no longer see him. So i stationed myself in front of that giant Apple TV and watched a couple of BBC short documentaries on animals.
In that store, i have never found a display that was not working, except for the Guitar Hero displays that seem to take a lot of abuse. And i think it is the dads who break them, not the kids.
Geoff, you need to come for a visit. We could go commune with the Geek Squad and show you a store where the readers are displayed sexily and you are treated like their favorite customer.
