Title: OT -- Apple's New Store in New York
Post by: JimH on May 21, 2006, 02:05:03 pm
We were in New York Friday, just as Apple was opening a new store.  The middle four pictures are the spectacular glass entrance:

And it poured as you can see in the last picture, taken through a taxi window.  Broken umbrellas were blowing down the street.

She's been very quiet lately. Did she have her handycam with her?

You're pretty good, Marko!

She's sent a lot of stuff, but I haven't had time to put up any more.  Maybe this week.

DSC04582.JPG is a bit "shaken but not stirred"

Gateway stores sucked i hope they actually sell something at the apple stores.

It seems apple is trying to capture more sales in the past year for all of there products not just the Ipod and Itunes.

I actually hope they do good, maybe they will give microsoft a run for the money.

where does this lead for JRiver?

Will we see a Apple JRiver Media Center?

Apple has published a nice 24-hour time lapse movie of the store front:

Actually, you can install Windows and MC to a Apple computer:

EDIT:
* a mouse click pauses the movie, the left and right arrow keys can be used for single frame steps, a double-click restarts the movie

The store looks really cool, i like the stairs, but their recent mac vs. 'pc' commercials are lame.
