  • Apple hasn't advertised a computer since the G5 and that ad was banned in the UK. The only way people are being made aware of their computers is through the iPod, which a shame because there is so much more to Apple than that.
  • I was their yesterday, I saw a little piece of paper stuck up by the door but I didn't want to stop to read it, I did see something about Westminster Council though. Thanks for sharing that. Could be interesting...
