  Meadowhall - Offline Shopping Misc Shopping at dooyoo.co.uk
Well everyone pinch yourself because this is very real - Meadowhall centre - and I think that even those with a complete aversion to shopping might wanna pay attention.
I'm a huge fan of the shopping centres - everything you want under one roof, no need to worry about the weather or having to trek from one side of a town to the other (though some of these places are the size of a small town, granted) everything is convenient and practical.
Personally, I really have to be in the mood to go shopping - if I'm not, Meadowhall is the stuff of my worst nightmares.

 Meadowhall UK Apple Store Opening this Saturday - Mac Forums   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
But it isn't just Sheffield that has seen the re-transformation, pretty much every town in Yorkshire and beyond has been subjected to some kind of "inward investment" scheme and all [usually] for the good of the relevant town/city.
Yes, it would have been fantastic if Apple had taken over one of the old city centre buildings, but let us not forget with respect to footfall I'm sure Meadowhall trounces the city centre by quite a degree.
Despite the fact that Apple have landed in a place such as Meadowhall, or in respect of Manchester the Trafford Centre, at the end of the day they're getting some much deserved high street presence in areas where the numbers are pretty much guaranteed on a daily/weekly basis.
