The good news for consumers is, the majority of those repairs can now be done by your local Genius.

When Apple announced their fall lineup of laptops, one thing really caught my eye. The new MacBooks can now drive a 30″ display. I don’t know how they did it, but that new integrated graphics chip can now really push out the pixels like no other MacBook has.
I had my 30″ display plugged into my [...]
Recently, Apple has started offering would-be iPhone 3G buyers an opportunity to save time in the store and purchase an iPhone 3G online for in-store pickup (and AT&T activation).
You first tell them whether this is a new single- or dual-iPhone purchase for either a new account or an existing AT&T account. You then either enter [...]

The “sticky note of good things to come” is now up at the Apple store.
Generally Apple puts this image up in the hours preceding major product additions. Doing so gives them time to make product page additions and adjustments. It also generally marks the beginning of unrelenting Apple fanboyism and speculation on what exactly they [...]
