Guess where Sneakers and I be?

We be in Walnut Creek at the new Apple store. It's way cool!

Gee, if I lived here, I could actually get to the board again. LOL

Been there done that. I was at the 1st Apple store opening in America. Glendale Ca. I tried my best to inform most members here at TS  of what I thought of Apples new stores. Not just  for us but for  many other Mac user sites. Well? Anything to say about what you think about the Apple store there? Let us know. Did you pass out TS flyers like me? LOL Yes! I did. While wearing my TS Tee! Bet you never knew we have T-shirts did ya!  B)

Hi Kimmer.

"I could actually get to the board again. LOL"

I was wondering ....  where-is-ya.

Didn't know you couldn't.?.

Bernie, I didn't pass out flyers because I didn't think of it; and no I didn't know we had t-shirts. Sneakers never told me. sad.gif He probably wanted to save his hard earned $$.  laugh.gif

I did however, reset the home page on a few machines.  rolleyes.gif

 Bill, I've been unable to load this place. Sneakers and I are on a network here at home, with an Asante router and for whatever reason the board sees us as the same person ... and with IE, I flat out could not get this place to load. I recently moved to Opera 6 (it's better than it was, but still has some shortcomings), and now I can load the site -- unless Sneakers is here lurking. sad.gif

Plus, when I come here and then he comes in later - is shows things as read for him. It gets confusing. So, I've kinda left this place for Sneakers to play.

Plus, I moderate a crochet list, and it's been ... ummm .... a major PITA over the past 7 months ... and that's kept me busier than I'd like.

Now - the Apple Store was way cool (although the loud music/noise about burst my eardrums). The staff was eager to help and answer questions, and loads of WORKING toys to play with (unlike compusa where things seldom work  dry.gif ).

I came home with the new HP game. I did have to whine a bit to get it ... but I have it. I'll probably wind up with flared tendonitis from playing it.  laugh.gif

Oh - and I fell in love with Jaguar and the new Apple browser and now I want to upgrade ... but I talked to a kid who told me about backing up my drive in OS X ... and well, I'm going to have to think this over.

Anyhow, that's the long and short of it. Sneakers would probably tell you that he had fun, one-upped me on directions, and put up with my whining in the store. But if he did, I'd have to tell you how he got us lost and missed the restaurant ... and didn't feed me until almost 4pm! hahaha

take care ...
