|
|
So I went to Starbucks today and there were 2 tip jars-- one said "Mac" one said "PC" the Mac one was completely empty, the PC was 1/4 full. As I threw my change in the Mac cup, I said, "Your customers have poor taste." The guy showed me a huge bag of money and said that they had to empty the Mac cup because it got too full!  |

This would be a great way to raise money for a charity or something. It would be cool if all Starbucks did this. _________________ 1.25GHz Mac Mini / 1.8GHz iMac G5 / 2.0GHz C2D Mac mini (2009)

I would chalk this up to Mac users having more disposable income.  |
