    This is one 10,000 square foot computer store. That's not a big store. And they do that $46K per hour - for every hour of the year.



    It has to be the most profitable 10,000 square foot consumer store, of any kind, on the planet. And that was 2010. God knows what 2011 or 2012 will look like.



    You think the Apple store is open 21 hours a day?

    "Pays for itself" suggests that the money spent on upgrading the cube is the reason for higher sales. I have a hard time believing that the sales at the store would be significantly different with a more pedestrian store design.
