If one can test hardware model in an Apple Store, some consumers were able to spend hours on the same computer for browsing the web, and especially MySpace.
To avoid this problem of having some users preventing potential consumers to try some hardware models, New York Apple Stores have banned MySpace at the server level. It seems that other Apple Stores have taken the same decision to prevent similar abusing usage of demo hardware models. If it is not the first website to be banned at the server level, so far it mostly concerned websites with pornographic contents.
