Signs of the times

Clearance Sale

This site's Writing on the Wall offers a one-glimpse look at where the IT industry, Apple, and the Mac are heading. For your consideration, here's another indication of a bright future for all things Apple: shopping mall photos by the famed Guy Kawasaki.

Yep, as you'd expect from the current economy, the pics show window after window of big "Huge Savings!" proclamations, with the view of said posters unhindered by any customers. 

With the exception of one brightly-lit store that has no clearance sale offers displayed – and is full of customers. Care to hazard a guess at what store that is?

Great products sell themselves, without desparate clearance campaigns. Great products let a company completely buck the trend of the day, and make a healthy business doing so. Go take a peek.

"You will have to take Vic's [Mac OS X Tiger] disk...I am not giving mine up. ;) Tonight I got on corpnet, hooked up Mail.app to my Exchange server and then downloaded all of my mail into the local file store. I did system wide queries against docs, contacts, apps, photos, music, and my Microsoft email on a Mac. It was f*cking amazing. It is like I just got a free pass to Longhorn land today."
