Here is the reason for the people in each store.
Sony: 99.99% of the people that bought Sony products did so months in advance after more months of research. Leaving .01% shopping the night of.
Microsoft: 20% of Microsoft users were experiencing difficulty with their electronics, preventing them from shopping online. 79.95% Did their shopping online at Newegg.com and got better deals than Black Friday by shopping Cyber Monday. Leaving .05% shopping the night of.
Apple: 60% are content on not knowing they have sub-par, dumbed-down, less-than-potential electronics. Leaving 40% wondering why the store is going to be closed for some "Christmas" thing, finding out their model is obsolete but for $500 more than they paid for the original they can have the same thing with just a 2.0 added to it, and they need their tech support done RIGHT NOW!

Although I am an Apple Fanboy - I LIKE your comment. You may even be right. Apple Maps never got me home. It's amazing how Find my iPhone can point exactly on the building that I am in, but maps misses my home by at least 2km.

I wouldn't say ALL Apple Products are expensive; their iPads; iPods are relatively cheap as well as their phones when talking Contract wise. As for Computers yeah they are somewhat expensive; but I've seen just as good High quality PCs for the same price; it's about quality not quantity. We sell & HP All-in-One Desktop for $1880; which is FAR!! More Expensive then the iMac which is about $700 LESS!! & I'm talking about the 21.5 inch version compared to the 23 inch HP. Quality wise the Apple has better internals & aesthetically pleasing it looks better then the HP. So basically it comes down to Price. If you can Afford the Apple get the Apple if you can't then you can't. Simple as that.

Love how both the Sony and MS stores have a douche-tech in 'fixit' stance. "Let me figure out why that's not work in' for ya ..."
