Apple Underground
We were in NYC yesterday on official business but couldn't help wandering over to 59th and 5th to see the new Apple store. Reminiscent of the glass pyramid outside the Louve, the store sits beneath a glass cube topped off with a chrome corporate logo.
The line was about a half hour long but the incentive was a free laptop every hour. No, we didn't win, but we had a great conversation with fellow boomers about waiting in line for Stones tickets. Somehow the two queues, separated by 35 years, seemed strangely familiar in their cult-like appeal.
The picture to the left is proof we got in - looking up through the glass cube from the sales floor. (See the related article on how this photo got here from my wireless phone)
