Hi all - not sure where to put this question but I am 'switching' to Apple products - have owned an iPad 2 & older iPod Touch for a while. Just purchased an iPad Mini for my wife & a MBPro w/ retina display for myself (arrived earlier this week, so a new experience). I ordered these two items online from Apple.
The closest Apple Store is in another city about 45 minutes away, so not a great local option for us, BUT just discovered that a new place called MacAuthority opened at our local mall (10 mins from my house) - we made a visit to purchase an iPad Mini case - they had a lot of accessories and also an entire line of Macs and laptops - also do AppleCare (which I bought w/ my MBP). Once I learn OS X, I plan to replace our old Dell DT computer w/ an iMac - my easiest option is to just visit this place and get to know the people.
Just curious about the reputation of this small chain of stores out of Nashville, TN - a number of places in TN, one in Louisville, KT, and the one in my locale, i.e. Winston-Salem, NC - thanks for any comments. Dave
