Big Event Friday Night at Apple Stores
Wow! I was just talking with a friend of mine that works for the Apple Store near me, and he says that the store is having a MAJOR event/party to bring out OS X 10.2 (Jaguar). I saw one of the shirts the employees will be wearing... very COOL!
It's all happening between 10pm and midnight, with the realease of 10.2 happpening at exactly 10:20.
Here is the <a href="http://www.apple.com/events/instore/" target="_blank"> link</a>to Apple's website where they describe the festivities.
Should be fun! Hope to see you all there!

<strong>I was thinking about going Friday night but since i'm not going to be buying Jaguar there (since I ordered it online) why bother going? If I'm at the mall on Friday night like I am a lot of the time maybe I'll go in and check it out.</strong><hr></blockquote>
some apple fan... maybe you'll stop by if your there. what better do you have to do in the Palisades Mall? And you've never been to a Macworld yet live an hour away from the Javits Center...
honestly boy, you need some more Apple spirit
<strong>hmm, i wonder what the free gifts are.</strong><hr></blockquote>
sources* close to the freke say that the "gifts" will be jizaguar (osx.2). b there, or b windows.
*) these sources include, but aren't limited to, one or two of thE freak's alternate personalities. thuh freak currently enjoys thuh affliction of multiple personalities disorder.

"you sound like someone i wanna meet"
- The Apple Store Party
naw, i will be there, just to get jaguar early and to get the t-shirt..... and maybe check out the curves on...the iMac
wait, i am cool
Should be fun.
<strong>will non-apple stores that sell X.2 offer the educational discount?</strong><hr></blockquote>
no EDU discount on software in retail stores.... <img src="graemlins/hmmm.gif" border="0" alt="[Hmmm]" />

well damn. my university isnt even selling it at education discount. pretty shitty deal...
I'd like to think "free", but that's probably pushing it.
They should sell it for $10.20
I'm actually considering jetting down tomorrow night, just in case. Even if that's not going to happen, I may go ahead and buy it anyway. Plus, there will be other prizes and stuff, plus Jaguar movies on screen, etc.
Mac geek camaraderie, in short.
If anyone goes, I'll be the guy in a black shirt, jeans and white New Balance shoes, wearing a UPS hat.
<strong>You know, since it's so late and there aren't THAT many stores (how many people could POSSIBLY show up, nation-wide?), part of me halfway believe that they might have a thing where, from 10:20 to midnight, OS X Jaguar might be severely discounted.

and with the limited user base in texas, not many people would go to the dallas store...which means there could actually be a chance of winning the free giveaway imac. damn, i wish it wasnt a 4 hour drive...
Grrrrrrrrrrrreat!
Wait, that's what Tony the TIGER sez.
<strong>THANK ALOT APPLE. THERE IS NO APPLE STORE IN SEATTLE. YOU BUMS </strong><hr></blockquote>
There isn't one in Philly either. But one of the resellers here (Springboard Media) is having one of their own. You should see if a reseller out there is too.

I live 30 minutes away from San Francisco and I haven't been to that Macworld. I live an hour from Palo Alto and I won't be there tonight.
