“We arrived at around 8.15am to be greeted by a very small turn out, we placed ourselves in the queue at around the 30 position and began snapping away! At round twenty to nine things started happening, beats started pumping from the store and staff led out through the doors handing out Grand Opening Visitors Guides,” World of Apple writes. They attended the Grand Opening of the Brent Cross Apple Store.
World of Apple reports, “The queue must have grown to around 70 people at this point as the staff looped the queue again cheering and giving high fives. 9am came and we promptly led into the Store, we were given t-shirts and more Visitors Guides, the store is long and thin but they’ve managed to cram a lot in. As you enter the store you have Intel iMacs to your right, iPods in the middle and a mixture of computers to your left (music based). As you move forward into the iLife section you have mini’s the right, iBooks in the middle and PowerBooks to the left.”
