hopefully the new apple store is just as impressive. maybe all tables, chairs and shelves are made out of glass too?

I knew it was only a matter of time before Jobs did Windows! :-)

And speaking of windows, how often do they have to clean the thing?

Its truly a awesome design. The staricase he co-designed is simply out of the world. Check out the pix on the Business Week. Steve leaves an indelible mark whtever he does…hats off to him.
He truly might make it to the list of all time Geniuses ever lived.

It’s a glass cube, you morons.

Inspiring? How so? Like St. Peter’s? The Eiffel Tower? It’s tripe. Deposable, jerk-off ostentation presentation.

“Dude, let’s make a glass cube and light an apple silhouette in there.”

The guy is good. Great. Better than great at marketing. Genius?? Save that for the Leonardos.

Now, go mow some lawns, sheep. HB
