It looks almost as empty as the Microsoft store at Tysons Corner in Virginia.

The previous Stanford Shopping Center Apple Store was in the middle of the mall, thus making it one of the longest walks from parking lot to store, regardless of which parking lot one parked at. The new Apple Store appears to be much closer to one of the parking lots, thus arriving at the store after parking will seem snappier. :)

...and since the first thing people do when they get to the store is go to a device and open a web page, they have in essence made Safari snappier. Brilliant!
