I know that Jetblue and Apple lifestyle brand in a way that captures someone like me’s attention, and this sure did. But then, it’s not just the 20-something with disposable cash (or who used to have disposable cash until the recession) who is drawn like a moth experiencing taxis. Two security guards and several middle-aged men stood next to me, gazing longingly at the tech candy. I was transfixed considering the options, and then walked away. I’d like to note that many of the video games were sold out.
