My husband was working all morning trying to find a replacement for my Father-in-law's dead computer, an Apple G4 Desktop. After calling around and taking to several people at The Mac Store and the Apple Store they decided my FIL should buy the $599.00 (or 600.00) Mac Mini.
So off goes my FIL to the Mac Store and tells them he wants to buy the $600 Mac Mini. The sales person says they don't have a 600 Mac Mini, they have a 500, 700 & 900 Mac Mini. Apparently my FIL asked what the difference was and they told him that the $900 Mac Mini was faster and without knowing any better he bought it. The 500 (really 599 and closer to 600) one would have been a lot faster than what he has now.
They totally took advantage of a man in his middle 70s and instead of selling him what he needed they sold him what would make them more money. We use to go to The Mac Store all the time, but we will no longer be going there nor referring others.
