Hi, The best Apple store in Limerick is 'Logic 2', Steamboat Quay, off the Dock Rd. Much better service than Compu B.

Don't 3G in authers quay do apple? Fairly useless shop as far as I remember though.

I also remember seeing Apple products in O2 stores.

aw savage, the only thing is everything always looks so pretty i want to buy it all but i usually have no money:(

i actually saw this thread a couple days ago and thought you meant actual apples and thought to myself what an odd question..

An Apple shop in Limerick, I thought there were only a few of those worldwide.

steveon

Dont think Apple are opening in Limerick as O2 was a distributer for their products until a falling out recently. So Apple are opening a store in Dublin but would find it doubtful for them to setup directly in Limerick...

Actually I found out today that Apple are opening a store beside Brown Thomas in the coming weeks, a mate of mine got a job there and is starting next months I believe.

There is no official Apple store in Limerick. I'm not sure there is even one in Ireland at all. Theres a couple of ones mentioned here that do seem to specialise in doing mainly Apple stuff alright.

The only time I've ever been to an official Apple store was in New York, fairly close to central park! I don't think there are loads of them across the world, so one opening in Limerick seems very unlikely!

Well believe what you want but you'll be seeing one beside brown thomas in a few weeks...

andrewapple

I heard that compuB is relocating to the space beside brown thomas. Not actually an apple store. But if you are correct i will be so excited. I am an apple fan.

It's a compuB thats going in beside BT's, not an "apple" store.

zuroph

its open. its nearly an apple store. but its compu B

1huge1

oh so its a only a apple outlet inside a compu B store, my sources were wrong.

Sorry all

TheLoc

CompuB yea. That IMac looks unreal. I have to get one.... When i'm loaded. I'd say i'll save for one. it's just class. been wainting for ages to touch one. I feel like such a dirty little pervert.

You are! Stay away from the childers across from Chawkes

Just got an 24" I MAC. Oh my god, it's unbelievably fantastic. Got it through Compu B and got Adobe Creative Suite at next to nothing. I just can't stop talking about my new Mac, and it looks soooo cool too. Good luck!

Mars Bar

That shop just looks like the most inviting shop ever with all it's white shiny stuff...
Have a mac myself and it takes a ridiculous amount of self-control to stop yourself going in there and buying something new!

How much did you pay? I want one too. they're built for the internet. soo class.

Would I be able to go in there and rant about how iTunes Ireland doesn't allow you download films and TV shows like the iTunes US and UK do? Cos I've been in touch with customer support already and all I've got is cheerful if perfectly useless responses from them.

Yes, I am a female...curious why you ask. I bought it because I use one at work....I dabble in graphic design and any designer worth their salt will tell you that Macs are the only option for graphic design. They take a bit of getting used to if you are used to working with PCs, but in my opinion they are far superior.

The fact that they are so clean, cool and clutter free (plug it in and away you go...no endless frustrating cables) is the icing on the cake.


the Loc, got a great deal: the almighty Imac, extra memory & Creative suite for €1600 + VAT.

Creative suite has indesign, photoshop, Illustrator and other adobe programmes and retails at about €2300 but I got it for €230 + VAt as a student. (I'm not, but theres ways and means around that )

It's not Apple's fault. They would need to get distribution rights for Shows and Movies here and it's not exactly easy or worthwhile for them considering Ireland isn't such a huge market for them

Thats unreal. My brother bought a mac notebook for 1600 2 months ago and it's not near as good as the specs on that imac. did you get it in compub or online?

Ok peoples, have handed out three infractions to people asking for or advocating the use of or acquisition of pirated software, and ways of obtaining it.

From this point on in the thread, such discussions will result in a 7 day ban and 1 infraction.

Hello there, do you recommend creative suite? Am starting my first semester in media design and am debating purchasing to have a play! It's prob a stupid question but, can you get creative suite for PC? Budget cant stretch at the mo to Mac!

Does anybody know if Compu B will be getting in the iphone 4? As it is going to be sim free and not locked to any network and they sell pretty much all of Apples other products i don't see why they wouldn't get it. I'll probably call into them to find out some day if i get a chance but thought someone on here might know already.

I'd imagine they would order in one for you. Hard to get at the moment though!

Ya seems to be impossible to get them. Will pop in later and see what they say anyway. Hopefully they'll be selling them on a waiting list like Belfast.

The consumer association in the US have refused to endorse the iphone4 due to the issues surrounding it's antenna.
