A tell-tale sign
When was the last time they took deliveries on a construction site while construction continued around the shop fitting? Soon these workers will have to clear out to make way for the team of "Mac Geniuses", taking away their drills and hammers to make space for the iMacs and iPhones.

77 King is a commercial building, no actual living there

What are your bosses at Microsoft going to do about this, CNet? All that money they spent to buy the continent of Australia, and now the population is going Mac. Bummer!

Have you never visited an Apple store? The one in Tokyo is also 3 stories tall, and features one floor with a dedicated theatrette. Better to have too much space than too little ;-)

RDF is old school. Steve Jobs is projecting a Reality Enhancement Field, an REF.

We have bosses at Microsoft? Sweet mercy no one told me. And to think I'd been upholding journalistic integrity all this time. Looks like you've subscribed to internet misconception #44, zato3: if someone ever, ever says something positive about a company, they must be being paid off. Definitely not the case, CNET is an independent media company.

Darn Sydney... I can only hope that Melbourne will get one eventually. Not that I live in Melbourne, I just prefer it to Sydney (us Victorians living in NSW go through hell I tells ya).

Upholding journalistic integrity? at C|net? C'mon Craig you might actually believe you're not suckling at Microsoft's teat but this is an ad-riddled corporate **** of a site with the kind of integrity that makes Fox News seem fair and balanced.
