Commentary--Why doesn't Maine have Any Store that carries Macs?

We'd really like to know the answer to that question. Better yet, we'd prefer to have an Apple Store or any store for that matter that stocks Macs.

Some friends of ours came by the other night. They are on the island for a month or so and need a computer and money is not a problem. They know of our allegiance to all things Mac. They aren't very happy with their old Windows machine and want to come by and get our thoughts on buying a Mac.

We'd love to be able to send them to an Apple Store. But, the nearest one is three hours away in New Hampshire or a bit further in Boston. Best Buy has built a new store in town. But no Macs on display. Grr.

Not only is Maine a leader in Mac notebooks in schools but it is apparently now leading the nation in immigration of retirees. Hello Apple? We want a Mac outlet, any Mac outlet. [Dana Baggett]
