take me to your leader

As I sit here in the theatre at the Apple Store in Regent Street, the VJ is spinning out the vibes while people engage in that ancient jungle rite of buying Mac gear in time for Christmas... While this may not be the mothership it's a definite Apple experience and far different from any retail store I've been to before. Nick and I came into the city today for my first visit—he came to the store opening last weekend—and we haven't managed to identify a product here we don't want yet. (OK. I don't want the 17" iMac G5, but then, that's because I want the 20" one...) Bronwyn is going to hate this entry! But this is not simple unadulturated consumer lust, it is the pure appreciation of beauty. Truly. Nothing more. Though (totally unreated to today's visit) I feel there is a new Mac in my future.

Posting via the free wireless network at the store. More later... Right now, back to the surrounds. After all, an Apple a day...
