Dave Chappelle
I ran into Dave Chappelle at the grand opening of the 5th Avenue Apple store.  He was pretty much mobbed by the crowd inside so it was hard to get a good picture.  I managed to get a few good ones.  Also, Mos Def was with him, but keeping a low profile.  I only managed to get one of him.

Dave in the NYC CubeComing to you live from the Cube

I've made it inside the Cube!  I decided to head out late so that hopefully the lines would have died down a bit.  I didn't get in line until 11:00 PM and made it into the store at about 11:40.  Not too bad considering many people waited for days to get in here.  Dave Chappelle was here and I got a few photos.  

I'll be posting photos later so stay tuned.

Update:

2006-05-19 083800PM.JPGI've uploaded photos from the Apple Store's grand opening.  I wanted to get some nice fisheye shots of the big line, but the head of security started harassing me the moment I tried to set up my tripod.  He tried to convince me that it is illegal to use a tripod in New York City, on a public sidewalk no less.  What nonsense!  I asked him to get a police officer to tell me that, but he refused and kept harassing me - standing in front of me when I tried to take a picture, threatening me, etc.  You can view a photo of him here.  So then I just went across the street and took some shots.  They weren't what I wanted to get, but oh well.

I've made some higher resolution photos available fromt the Big Apple's Eve photo set.  I've only made a few of the best ones available because I'm not sure how much traffic I'll get.  To view the photos go to the Cutterpillow Gallery.
 
Enjoy!

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!


 
The entire Flickr set is here.

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:

Thank you TUAW and Engadget for linking to my photos:

Image 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. 
 
The full album is here.
