Impress Watch took advantage of Apple's offer to members
of the press for a sneak preview of the Shinsaibashi store (in Osaka,
Japan), and brought back images that remind me of... the Apple store
in the mall. Not that it's an entirely bad thing - the mall stores are
pretty swanky.
While we're on the topic of things not being bad, Apple's market in
Japan certainly isn't either. This two story, 500 square meter Osaka
store is the second Apple store in the country. Though the first floor
appears to be your common Apple store, a glass staircase will take you
to the second floor that features a bar and 25-person seminar room.
The store will open to the public on the 28th, so I'm expecting a
bunch of people to bum rush the place and help Apple pay for that much
square footage in downtown Osaka.
While we're on the subject of Apple stores, the company also
announced a third Apple store in Japan at the press event: Nagoya, to
open early next year.

A Gateway to disaster?
A Gateway to disaster?
09/26/2004 12:51 PMThere was a time, once, when I didn’t need a computer. Somehow, a pen,
some paper and a word processor were enough to get my words across
— and if you had asked me what a gigabyte was, I would have
simply walked away, confused.
My, how times have changed. When I was entering college, computers
were just beginning to hit the mainstream, and I can remember using
my friend’s Performa to get those last-minute term papers written. To
be honest, I wasn’t particularly impressed … which is not to say I was
unimpressed either; I was merely a clueless word-processing neophyte
who saw a computer as a logical transition from an electronic
typewriter.
To be honest, the first time I really noticed a computer was when a
friend of mine brought home his brand new Gateway desktop. Between the
cow-spotted box and the bright screen (at least as compared to my
friend’s Performa), it was my experience with Gateway that convinced
me to buy my first computer.
Then, three years later, I bought a Mac, and I never looked back.
Gateway, however, has, and it's not a <A
HREF="http://www.pcmag.com/slideshow/0,2394,l=135602&s=400&a=1356
03,00.asp">pretty sight</A>.
So, what happened. In 1997, Gateway was at the top of the charts, but
by 1998, they had crashed — in more ways than one: Its stock
plummeted, its designs faltered, its creativity suffered, and its
outlook turned oh so bleak.
Now, if the stock drops a dime, that's 2 percent of the company's
worth.
It's unfortunate how these things happen to tech stocks. More than any
other sector, the tech market’s volatility have kept investors at bay
for years, wary of even the slightest fluctuation in earnings or
sales. On a good day, it's enough to drive a CEO to drink; add a
high-priced Google and a bloated Apple to the mix, and there might be
a few job openings in upper management.
Seriously, though, these types of booms and busts are most certainly
cyclical, and every few years a stock comes along that performs better
than the rest, with numbers breaking recent company highs and products
that have got everyone talking.
Kinda like Apple. Kinda like now.
In February 2001, after cutting some 3,000 jobs, icing plans for 60
retail stores and drastically cutting its number of possible PC
configuration, Gateway announced that it was "shifting back to
primarily selling computers, after pursuing a strategy aimed at
selling services and peripherals, so-called 'beyond-the-box' revenue.
Executives said Gateway will focus on selling computers first, instead
of pushing a combination of products from the outset."
Which is to say that Gateway shifted away from a profitable
sub-business to refocus its efforts back on its bread and butter. So
too, with Apple and iPod.
I've written several columns examining Apple and iPod: Some have
explored Apple's shift from manufacturing computers; some have
suggested making iPod its own brand, but throughout it all, the iPod
has carried Apple through supply slumps and sales speed bumps. The
truth is, without iPod, Apple’s stock wouldn’t be anywhere near $40.
Tech stocks have proven that investors cannot live on computers alone.
Of course, if anyone can do it, Apple can. While Gateway still hasn’t
found the formula that made it so popular in the mid 90s, Apple
continues to push ahead, straddling two markets with dexterity, and
(thus far, anyway) succeeding at both.
But it remains to be seen whether the iMac will sell. And after nearly
16 months, the Power Mac doesn't have much more juice than it did upon
its introduction. Whatever happens with the fourth quarter (which ends
Thursday), it seems as though Apple doesn’t have too much to worry
about at the moment.
But eventually, a decision will need to be made — Gateway chose
poorly and has never recovered. Somehow, I think Apple will get this
one right.
