How did he get that far, in public, carrying a sword??????

I imagine he kept it sheathed until on the staircase. I own a vintage Japanese sword. About twenty years ago I walked the streets of Japantown in San Francisco to have it appraised, carrying it sheathed slung over my shoulder. No one bothered me other than giving a smile. Even went into a local Japanese mart to buy some groceries. All smiles. Guess they're used to it there. Flash forward to today, and I probably wouldn't carry it in public now.

Probably a lot safer to do that in New York than in Dallas. (Of course, the Apple store in Dallas doesn’t have a glass staircase.)

Maybe the guy was frustrated that his Apple 4S is costing him over $1000 to fix.

This wouldn’t have happened at a PC store. Windows systems are immune to Samurai attacks.

Maybe he was just hoping to slash prices. You know, like they do at WalMart?

Apple, being the dominant product in the market by far, does not need to discount.

"Is Abe Vigoda still alive?"

Strangely enough - Yes.

(He's 94.)

Maybe “Swordmaker” is just getting some free advertisement.
