I would be deeply impressed to see a smart knowledgable "Sales-lady" in a B&O shop. As long as they are not too butch and don't wear pin-striped trousers I'm OK. I think in these male dominated sales arenas, they can be quite disarming and dont allow macho BS to prevail. (but what is macho about B&O anyway - BL5 excepted).
I do think that the No.4 Cool Brand could take a leaf of the No.1 Cool Brands book. They do seem to make rather nice motorcars don't they?
Now where is my local AM dealers telephone number? I must arrange a testdrive.
