Mac Pro 'Buy Now' features local resellers

This is the first time I have seen this: I clicked the 'Buy Now' button on the Mac Pro website and the popup to the right appeared. Now, this is interesting for several reasons:

• The Buy Now button did not take me directly to the Apple online store

• While it features a prominent link to the Apple online store, and a phone number, it also includes a search box to help me find local resellers.

Now, this might not mend all the hard feelings that exist between Apple and third party resellers, but it seems to me this is a step in the right direction.

At the time this post was written the Mac Pro is the only product page that exhibits this behavior.
