Hmmm... do they wear nametag? Should ask them to wear nametag so that customers can write their name here. At one point I almost take the picture of the staff (at MV) busy playing music and using internet on the display mac instead of allowing customers to test the machine, but I think it was too much and don't want to 'tutup periuk nasi org'.

Maccity 1 Utama customer service is not as good as it used to be back 3 years ago when it was MacAsia. Maybe most of their senior sales assistants already left.

p/s: Still can't forget one of the sale assistant at machine gardens confidently telling me that mighty mouse is referring to wireless mouse which which she said is smaller that the wired mouse which she called normal mouse.

Sometimes we also need further explanation over what we read from the internet plus a live demo with good explanation will help the buyer a lot. Like those sales person at Digital Mall, good explanation which made me end up buying 500G external hard disk even though originally I was planning to buy the 200G.

Anyway, been to Machines at 1U almost every alternate week, like their bargain/clearance section. Hope they make it permanent by putting old stock from time to time for people like me who still using old version of apple gadgets. Of course also dropped by Maccity since both are in the same building.

Btw '1337' means what? Maybe I am so old-timer.

The website doesn't say minimum purchase to be eligible for membership card. If I buy universal dock, am I eligible to get membership card? If can then I have to do these coz I didn't ask for the membership card when I bought universal dock two days ago at 1U.

There goes the main advantage of buying from Machines as compared to Mac City. So back to square one, 'Any advanatge buying from Mac City or Machines?'
