I went back to the 5th Ave. Apple store tonight and this time I had some better equipment. I brought a tripod, Nikkor 10.5 mm Fishey and Nikkor 18-200mm VR. The first pilgrims were there and in line, at least one coming as far as Germany. The photos turned out very nice. Enjoy!

I decided to ride my bike down to the soon-to-be-opened Apple Store on 59th Street and 5th Avenue and I was able to witness the unveiling of the gigantic glass cube. I got a few pictures of it and it's sure to be quite the spectacle. It's better to just look for yourself, so take a peek at the pictures and enjoy!

Update:
All the traffic overloaded my server so I've moved the photos to Flickr. Hopefully everything will stay up.
Update 2:

Apple has now announced the new iBook MacBook to complete the transition of their laptop line from PPC to Intel CPUs. As I started reading about its features I was thinking that this was going to be an amazing little laptop for a very nice price. But then I saw the graphics card that it uses, the Intel GMA 950 which is the same crappy graphics card that the new Mac Minis use. This means that there is no replacement for the 12" PowerBook - a Pro-level laptop in a small form factor. So I guess Pro (as in MacBook Pro) means graphics card and sans Pro (just MacBook) means slow integrated graphics. Everything about the new MacBooks is great except for the integrated video.

Last week the Croshaws left New York for the quiet life in North Carolina. The ward had a nice little going away party for them in the park on 90th & 2nd Ave. They will definitely be missed.

Last Saturday (May 6, 2006) there was a Romanian Festival in downtown New York. It was actually on Wall Street. So Miki, one of her friends and I went with empty stomachs hoping for some nice, authentic Romanian food as well as some yummy desserts.
Well, we found some nice sausage and were actually the very last people to get any - the lines were huge! We didn't get any desserts though.  The line for the desserts was enormous and they could only make 6 desserts at a time. So after waiting for a half hour and the line not moving we gave up and went to one of the non-Romanian street vendors to get some crepes.
The entertainment there was interesting. We saw what I can only describe as the Romanian version of the Backstreet Boys. They seemed to be hugely popular and really got the crowd going. But not being able to understand any of the words it wasn't too thrilling for me.
Anyway, you can find some more photos here.

I'm sure Apple will be fixing this soon, but does this signal a soon-to-be released MacBook (sans Pro) to replace the iBook line? As I'm sure Apple will be fixing this problem soon, here's a screenshot (click for larger image):
Update: It looks like the iPod page has been updated and is back to normal.

Pungi and I spent a lot of time at Central Park over Easter weekend. We met up with a couple of friends, Miki and Danni, and just enjoyed the park with the thousands of other New Yorkers. You see in places like California and Florida you go to the beach on the weekend, in New York you go to the park.
Enjoy the photos. If you want to view the entire gallery then click here.
