Apple Store to open in Rome

Website MacScoop discovered that Apple will open a store in Rome later this month, the 31st of March at 9:00 AM. The first 1000 visitors will receive a free Apple T-Shirt because you know those Italians, they're really big on wearing free T-Shirts...not! Even though Italian society continues to change, as far as I can tell from a sampling of relatives, the Buon' affare-ness of the free offer will almost certainly be offset by their complete disdain for the brutto figuro brutta figura[1] of the T-Shirts. Remember: It's more important to look good than to feel good!

Apple Store Roma Est aprirà sabato 31 marzo alle 9:00. Prendete parte ai festeggiamenti per l'apertura di Apple Store, Roma Est. Partecipate all'inaugurazione e, se sarete fra i primi 1000 visitatori, ricevete gratuitamente una T-shirt Apple.

Oh by the way, if you're looking for a job? Apple Roma is hiring.

Update: I want to send regards to all our Italian readers who have stopped by to wish me well with my love life in such marvelously emphatic terms. I believe the translation you have been given is incorrect. This post only reflects that my Italian relatives, from an older generation, would never wear a t-shirt--free or not. The "look good/feel good" line comes from Saturday Night Live and Billy Crystal.
