You will at least be able to see into the shop. It will have Windows. I’ll get my coat. |

Won't it just be like PC World, except the people in there will have some idea what to do?

Not at all - I'd feel dirty if I needed to ask them for advice, but they're just a retailer! They're no different to Asda or Tesco really! They're quite fun to "show up" though, picking holes in their knowledge etc... |

It isn't difficult, I must admit. Funny thing was, I had to tell them they had the macbook pro I wanted in stock. They were still trying to sell the old macbook for £950...but their website said it was available to collect at store! |

Well I wonder if the shop will meet building standards? |

They will attempt to redefine the standards, and if that fails they will carry on anyway. |

They'll rely on a 3rd party solution to prevent the building from collapsing - the customers will pay for this though an annual subscription....
