Apple has lost its mind; invites field trips to Apple Stores

In a move that can be considered either innovative or madness, Apple has extended an invitation for K-12 students to run a muck through an Apple Store now through November 21. The Field Trip lasts an hour and lets the students create everything Macs are designed to do: websites, iPhoto albums, iMovies, ect. The Field Trips seem to be free, but you know, I’m thinking parents are obligated to buy something - like an iMac or MacBook. It would be rude not too.

Its genius. Get them used to the Mac and the ooohh factor and they then become customers.

And that really is what school should be for - turning children into customers!

That’s run amok, not a muck.

But while we are on the subject, since as a culture we are adopting materialism and machine worship as our core values, it makes perfect sense.
