Wrong, you're missing the fact that you need to sell 40 pairs of jeans at a 50% markup to equal the markup on a 3000 dollar mac.

And by the way, clothing stores usually operate on a 50% markup, which far exceeds Apple's. So shouldn't they be more profitable per square foot, since they don't offer free Internet access?

OT, but take a look at these if you're interested in jewelry stores:
