I bought my MacBook Pro online at apple.com.  Then I bought extra ram at 
crucial.com for a really good price.  Never had to leave my desk.  Call me 
lazy.

However, before I bought I went over to CompUSA and checked out their Mac 
section.  Pretty decent, although the guy that tried to sell me something 
did not know anything about Macs.  He was a younger kid though.

I have not had the best of dealings with Mac Something.  I bought my 
keyboard there but that is it.  Perhaps I have just gone there at the 
wrong times, but those times I got lousy customer service.

I thought there was a MacDocs here in Orem also.  Perhaps they moved or 
closed it.
