As a general rule, I don’t like to “buy in” to television advertisements unless they can prove to be factual in some way or form, especially coming from a company like Apple who primarily runs their advertisement campaign to compete against the PC market. That being said, the video illustrated on customer service is painfully accurate as I can’t help but agree at how easy Apple has made the customer experience, after my recent visit at the Apple Store in the Menlo Park Mall in Edison, NJ. I went to the Apple Store with a simple question in mind: If I were to act as a typical business customer and show interest in purchasing a new computer from Apple, how hard would it be, and what would my experience be like?

View the concept video and decide for yourself!
