Well, I could not resist, I had to go see the "Night of the Panther" down in SoHo, on Prince and Greene, at the Apple Store. I thought that I would maybe just walk in, get some sort of t-shirt or something. I never got in. There was a line outside of the store, all the way around the corner, half way to Houston street. Impressive. A couple and an older man from Poland were discussing what they should do with this line. "Za chlebem" (they are lined up for bread) I said... And the lady laughed. She was old enough to remember.
These people here were lined up to either get Panther, of which there was enough, certainly, everywhere, or maybe to get 10% off anything in the store after the purchase of panther. Wow... that's crazy talk...
I did not get in. I walked away from this.
Maybe next year... or in several years... three years... that will make it os 10.6... hmm... "Montecore"?...
I did make it in. It was like a feeding frenzy. The 10% off was quite the deal although I couldn't quite talk myself into a new G5. They had plenty of them ready to be carried out by new owners. The lady in front of me spent $400 and I spent $230. That was just 2 of us.
