I'm sorry, if I'm buying a $4k machine the last thing I want to see is a tip % option. I'm all for them to make more money and have better conditions but no way this crap.

@paul When I worked at Apple in the pre-iPhone days, it was common for customers to try to tip us if we helped them to their cars with their new purchase (a big-honking CRT iMac or eMac, etc).
The rule was “no tips allowed” so we had to refuse.
MY rule was “only refuse once”. If the customer insisted…then thankyouverymuchhaveaniceday.
