An Apple store found a new low recently when a Sydney, Australia father was not able to purchase an item because the Apple staffer would only process his payment using Apple pay. In a move the buyer recounts as being 'stupidity', a staff member repeatedly tried to get the customer onto Apple pay instead of just processing the payment for the item. Things went downhill after the staffer asked the customer if he had an iPhone. The customer got the impression that he would need to use the Apple Pay app to buy what he wanted, when what he really needed was to pay and leave. After trying, and failing, to find a staff member who would just process his payment, the customer left the store, walked across the street, and purchased the same item from a JB Hi Fi store.

      The same. It plays videos. I'd install Linux on it but it's a pain what with only supporting a 32bit UEFI image and having a 64bit processor. After I got that working it turned out I'd have to recompile the kernel to include a storage device module that wasn't already built in, so I said screw it rather than set up a cross compiling environment or trying to compile on a badly underpowered tablet.
