Many people know that I like LJS Apple Service Center in The Haque (The Netherlands), but unfortunately there is no service point here in London that will do a repair in a couple of hours. Still I am glad when I went to the Apple Store in Regent Street this afternoon.

LJS killed my combo-drive with the last repair of my topcase of my MacBook. The Apple Store here was happy to fix it for me, even though somehow all of my repairs at LJS are not listed in their system. Additionally I had a nice talk with some of the tech guys of DJ Jazzy Jeff (who was also int he store himself). I just love the geek bar here, it is simple and it works and when you sit there you even get to meet people.
