Someone pick me up off the floor - Knoxville's Getting an Apple Store!
This evening I was strolling the West Town Mall - just for fun... OK - it really wasn't for fun - I was helping my nearest and dearest shop for clothing. Anyway, just a few steps before the Brooks Brothers store - right at the place my stomach usually starts turning in anticipation of the hideous southern preppy, seersucker, navy sport coat assault on the senses that is Brooks Brothers - my whole evening got a little bit better.
So I wet myself a bit. I'm not ashamed. We're getting a freaking Apple store!!! No details on the time table yet, but there's a construction wall with a nice, big Apple logo printed on it.
After a bit of checking, I turned up a couple of other sites who've been speculating about this. Mat on Macs scooped this over a month ago after an article in the Knoxville News Sentinel. The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW) had a post on the subject as well.

Congratulations. But remember--look with your eyes, not with your wallet.
The Brooks Brothers store will stay though, right? I wanted to come back down and get me a navy/white striped suit--should have just gone for the impulse buy while I was there.
