My evenings suck unless you don't mind me showing up around 10pm. Saturday & Sunday evenings are good though.

Back to the subject of Apple retailers, I bought my iMac at that one store that sells Macs on the computer street near Zhongxiao Xinsheng. They don't have much in terms of accessories or whatever and they don't really provide any service, but I got a fairly good price at the time, especially for the extra gig of RAM, which they installed right in front of me. So I'm a happy customer. That's also where I bought my iPod a couple of years ago before they were so ubiquotous.

The two abc guys, David and Elvis, no longer work at the Jinhua apple store. There's usually someone there who speaks English still though.

A baby ant crawled behind the screen of my powerbook a few months ago. After negotiating his way around the back of my browser for about 12 hours, it finally died two thirds up in the middle of screen. The Jinhua boys were happy to apple care it.

By the way, there's quite a few threads about this topic so be prepared for a merge.
