Who's on First? Next to the MAC Store
by , 5:00 PM EDT, March 24th, 2008
Apple Customers shopping at the Cherry Hill Mall in New Jersey will have to decide on whether to visit the Mac store or the MAC store, according to ifo AppleStore on Sunday.
Of course, the MAC store is MAC cosmetics, shown in a photo right next to the new Apple store.
Customers asking directions to the Apple store could get an interesting response: "Why, it's right next to the MAC store."
If they don't also ask who's on first, they'll likely keep their sanity.

D'oh! With a Homer Simpson slap to my head. I am so used to correcting trolls about the spelling of Mac that I over reacted.
And of course the same thing was said about it being a cosmetics store in John's article.
