Apple described just what features are included in the mark:

Rectangular tables arranged in a line in the middle of the store parallel to the walls and extending from the storefront to the back of the store.

Shelves and stools set beneath a table are also included:

There is multi-tiered shelving along the side walls, and a oblong table with stools located at the back of the store, set below video screens flush mounted on the back wall.

Do the rectangular tables have rounded corners?

It actually says in the article: "Rectangular tables protected, no word on rounded corners"

Well, a shop layout to be fair. Although it also pretty much fits the description of a lot of mobile phone shops that existed (at least in the UK) well before Apple got back into retail.

Anyway, the only possible reaction to most stories about trademarks & the like these days is *sigh*.

The same idiot that's allowed a massive number of equally ludicrous patents & trademarks before? It's not like this is anything new.
