Apple is about to open their 14th retail store in Texas -- San Antonio's second -- this Saturday, June 28th. Apple Store North Star is located in the North Star Mall, next to Ann Taylor. You can get full driving directions here. The doors open at 10:00 AM. Two stores is pretty good, San Antonio, but Houston still has you beat with three.To find out what version of Mac OS you are running, go to the Apple logo in the top left corner, click it and choose About This Mac. From that window you will see the version number, processor, memory and chosen startup disk. Clicking Software Update will check for updates, and More Info... will open up an extensive list of everything on your machine.

Not to nitpick, but the Houston area as a whole has 6 Apple Stores, not just 3. Galleria, Memorial City, Willowbrook, First Colony, The Woodlands, and Baybrook. Only 3 are technically in Houston city limits (Willowbrook, Galleria, and Memorial City), but all are easily accessible to Houston-area residents.
The 2 San Antonio stores are the only Apple stores in the Greater SA area.

That's all the one at Partridge Creek in Michigan has to be. Very, very thin compared to the others I've seen. You can barely walk in there half the time

>>This store is pretty narrow at only 34 feet wide. Aren't things supposed to be bigger in Texas?
Maybe it's only 34 feet wide, but it's LONG!

Yea, I don't get it. When you go to apple/retail, there is just one Apple store in Dallas... but I know there is at least 1 more (Knox Street in Dallas). I don't see why they don't have these listed on their site.
Anyone know why?

Knox Street is listed on their site, but not in Dallas; in Highland Park.
Jason said 2:03PM on 6-26-2008
In DFW we have:
Northpark Apple Store in Dallas
Knox Street which the Apple site says is Highland Park
Willow Bend which is Plano
Southlake Town Center
Northpark is technically the only one physically in Dallas proper, that is why the site only shows 1 Dallas store.

The Dallas/Fort Worth area has 4 stores with 2 more on the way (Fort Worth and Plano).

Still waiting for one in Arlington, TX. There are several good locations there. Southlake isn't too far but man....the traffic getting there ...argh

There will be an Apple Store opening soon at University Park Village just outside downtown Fort Worth between the Cultural District and TCU.

This update took forever and now my fans are running like jet engines - seriously, I've never heard fans sound this loud.......okay, the fan has finally subsided, but it ran continuously for just about 2 full minutes.
Went into disk utility and ran permissions - everything fine (fingers crossed, knocking on wood).

You installed the cooling system at this store?

North Star Mall is ghetto. Has a comically oversized cowboy boot in front of it, though (world's largest?? -- like it matters). Hard to miss, anyway.

JD Latham-
I live in Texas.
Please learn how to communicate in English before posting your comments. I believe you were trying to say something along the lines of:
there are TOO many malls IN Texas
Moron.
Oh, and we have indoor shopping in Texas because it gets kind of warm here in the summer months. If you don't like Texas, please stay away. Thanks.
