Super!!
I wish I could be an ‘artisit’.
Just had to change my flights hoped it would open Saturday.
Will someone please say why all the hype about another Apple store? You would think it was really something when, except for the 24 hr operation, it’s no different from all the others, is it?
This one has a glass cube…
Does anyone think that they may release new products…they have never plugged such an opening before.
Just a thought.

Steve Jobs annouces his candidacy for President…Not a moment too soon, I might say.
How do you feel about being snooped on?
Maybe the new MacBook will be unveiled along with those new iPods? I could see the rumor going from May 9th to May 19th . . .
Will there be someone there who can tell me how to work around about a dozen serious bugs in iPhoto and iMovie?
If so, I’ll stand in line for as long as it takes to get inside.
But, I don’t want to be fooled – I really want someone with an Apple paycheck to say if the company is ever going to support anything else in iLive like they do iTunes.
I deserve honesty. If they won’t make them ‘just work’ why don’t they just drop all the other parts of iLife?
