Aside from orders, FWIW try-on appointments in the Chicago area at this time are essentially fully booked into Saturday afternoon. Only two of the area Apple Retail Stores have the Edition model - North Michigan Avenue and Lincoln Park - presumably …

How about some back-of-the-envelope arithmetic. A typical Apple Retail Store will be open around 147 hours beginning April 10 through April 23. If on average a store has 10 watch try-on stations manned by store personnel and each can deal with six a…

This article's use of the word "influence" is troubling. If the new book presents a more accurate depiction based on Apple people's interviews, that's good. If the book merely furthers a desire by Apple people to rebut Isaacson, maybe not so much. O…
