I, on the other hand, did. It's not as bad as the Verizon Store, but there's definitely room for improvement. I appreciate the fact that you can bring your mac into a store if there's something wrong with it, because with my PC i used to have to call Geek Housecalls. For those who are unfamiliar with G.H., basically this guy named Charlie (who used to be really fat but recently lost like 100 lbs...) comes and chills at your house for like 6 hours, even though the problem only takes 15 minutes to fix (figures they charge by the hour).
Anyway... The mac store is always busy. So from the outside, it looks like people are always buying stuff. Don't be fooled, it's an optical illusion. Everyone is actually just waiting for the genius bar, meaning something they already bought is broken (or they're old and don't know how to use it.)
Just as the Verizon Store is like the Dentist, the Mac store is kinda like the Doctor's office. You have to make an appointment far in advanced, you have to get their a little early just in case they're ready to see you, but end up waiting forever anyway, and then when you're finally seen, the problem you have isn't acting up anymore so you look like a hypochondriac.
So, I basically wasted an hour of my life at the mac store today just to look like an idiot in front of Ben "the Genius." Whatever, at least I got to see not-Christina Applegate
