Apple has offered some information on how its retail operation is going so far this year, reports The Loop. Today the company opened its 374 and 375 stores in Coquitlam and Halifax, Canada.
According to Apple, the company has seen almost 300 million worldwide visitors so far in 2012. To give you some type of comparison, by July 2011, the population of the United States was estimated to be 311 million people.
There is also an interesting data point from Apple's retail Genius Bar. According to the company, 50,000 people get serviced at a Genius Bar around the world, every single day. That's a lot of appointments.

Or it could mean Apple products are not as user-friendly as fanbois make them out to be, and are just as poorly designed, engineered and manufactured as a Yugo.

I went to one yesterday as my iPhone kept rebooting when turned off. They looked at it or 2 seconds and I left with brand spanking new phone. Only had a week left on warranty too. Very impressed!

Or that could also mean that apple actually helps their customers no matter how stupid they are
