Agreed - I would like to suggest that 100% of the 8-10 iPhones, iPod Touches, iMacs, iPads, MacBook Pros, and MacBook Airs that were purchased by friends, and family (that weren't already using Macs) - were sold by _me_ in conjunction with Apple's great Marketing and track record of supporting their product. Particularly the one Android User and one Blackberry user.
The employee in the Apple store (and I take nothing away from them) - were responsible for taking a credit card number, email address, getting the box from the store room, and putting it in a bag. I even pre-sold applecare for them.
