The Cow touches Japan
Another Apple Store has been tagged...
I couldn't make it to the Shibuya store when it opened on the 6th (I was in Hiroshima for the peace ceremony), but you get the Shinsaibashi store instead. At least it has the same spiral staircase.In the second picture, you can see the desktop was still unchanged when I left the store after browsing for a while. When I went back later in the day to catch the concerts, it was already replaced. Oh well.

I'm so down with the Shibuya store...
Aha, if you look close, there it is at the first computer. This one really made me smile, because:
- Hao is one of my few readers from Japan that I'm aware of, and that's just cool. [Hao has informed me he's Chinese by birth and living in Japan]
- The desktop he chose to use is one from the covercasts, but not the public one. It's the one I just gave out to those who helped, so he had to have trucked that out with him en leu of one of the standards. You can find Hao on disc one.
I have to say, it's a little strange to be throwing up a post that includes "Hiroshima", "peace ceremony" and "The Cow", but not in a bad way.
Thanks, Hao.

Godzilla? I'm more worried about the ads that are starting to slowly creep back in.

Funny you post about Shibuya Japan Apple store just when I was thinking about visiting it.
I guess it counts me as 'one of few readers from Japan' too.

My brother came here to visit me and got his picture taken in front of the Shinsaibashi, Ginza, and under-construction Shibuya stores. We missed Nagoya though, so we don't have the full set.

When I was in the Apple store in Toronto they had the terminal disabled. It was packed up in a password protected .sit file.
All I wanted to do was see if there were any differences in the Tiger version :(
very cool. I'd love to go to Japan, maybe next year :-)
