I got into using a MAC when I started doing video for a living. There just aren't any industry standard editing programs out there for a PC that can compete with those built for a MAC. My MAC also is superior for photoshop and audio work. Eventually, I just got use to the ease of use and stability that my MAC offers...plus is just more fun and pretty to look at then a PC. And I have yet to get a trojen, worm, virus or anything like that. For the most part, MACs are impervious to the dangers of the internet. An APPLE store in AP? Unlikely, but I bet it would bring in crowds. And since Apple is a pretty hip company, I'd bet a Jersey Shore Apple store would be much better placed somewhere cool and funky rather then a mall (or Red Bank)
