Bought my Macbook pro today.. sorry Jacek ;)

Couple of things to say,

1st. They overrate the word 'genius', the one i had was thick.

2nd. Their promotion this year for students sucks :(

3rd. 4.56 GB for Xcode 4.. great, thats the next few hours of my life wasting away ;)

That is pretty common for the genius bar, fun to mess with them though.

Aha. I didnt even need to mess with this one to confuse her.

She literally had to ask 3 other people about a RAM upgrade before one of them told me that they only do it for genuine Apple products and that if i wanted to save £100 then I can get my ram from crucial.com and just do it myself.

Also, she failed at registering the University gift card (the promo for this year) and used up 3 before it actually worked.. :/

/edit. another bad thing; can't use the gift card to get access to developers suite (costs $99 and the voucher is equivalent to $100 yet it wont allow me to. :( )

has to be done by CC
