When I was looking into purchasing a MBP 17" Unibody, I decided that I'd like to see it first hand in an Apple Store, rather than just gawp on t'internet. I went twice to my local Apple Store, and a strange thing happened....
I explained to the person who was dealing with me that I'd like the new 17" unibody MBP when it comes out, and I'd like the faster processor, so that it'll last me a bit longer. They said both times I went in, that perhaps the 17" wasn't the one I should go for, but perhaps the 15" would be better.
Now, I know I've probably over analysed this, but, to me, there's four possibilities:
1: The person I was speaking to works on commission, and, rather than have me purchase a custom built MBP online, they were trying to convince me to buy in store, in order that they receive commission.
2. Apple aren't selling many 15" MBPs and they're trying to boost sales of the little 'un.
3. They were actually being nice, and were correct in thinking that the 15" was right for me.
4. <Insert theory involving MI5 and aliens>
Has anyone else had this happen to them, or am I going crazy?
Thanks
