I put one the front of the PC that I build, and I'm gonna get a blank 4"x4" static window cling to put the other sticker on to put it in my car window.

I ain't putting Apple stickers on my car, or on my Sony notebook. :p

One set still in the box. The others, I gave to my daughter and son to do what they wanted. I think they have them in a box, still. We're not a sticker family. It's a don't put all your furniture on the front porch kinda thing.

Put one on my car dead center above the high mounted stop light on the window.. looks pretty slick. the other one died when i tried putting it on the window but a piece of paper came along with it so i had to dispose of it.

One is on my truck, the other is in the vault along with maybe 12-15 other sheets of Apple stickers (white and rainbow varieties) I've complied through the years. I don't have a plan for them...

the other sticker is in my desk, haven't found a good place to put it yet...

I've got eight of the little guys and I keep them in pristine condition. I just can't bring myself to use them. Occasionally when I come across them I might peel one back a bit but I lose my nerve and stick it back down again. One day I'll use them though. One day.

I put the two that came with my iMac G4 on a frosted white binder and use that to hold all of my system discs and all other CDs and DVDs that I have accumulated for the computer and peripherals. That way I don't have to open the boxes or search for the discs in the event that I need them. I like that it matches the computer, too.

I'd really like to get an aluminum binder and put two stickers on there so it matches my Power Mac, but I just can't see spending more than a couple dollars on a binder I hope to never use.

You should get 2 for each Mac/iPod you buy.

I would trade 2 new stickers for a classic one (Rainbow).

and about that PC with apple sticker... grrr! Fugly ;)

my girlfriend keeps nagging me for one. i tell her when she gets her Mactel Powerbook there will be 2 right there in the box for her... cummon Mactel. make my life easier!

Apple started shipping computers with stickers again sometime this past fall. When the iBooks were updated, and the iPod Photo was released.

I have quite a few Apple stickers (something like 30 sheets) and I usually only put one of the bottom of my skateboard.

Always in the same spot too.

Hey, Katie, do you like your boba to taste more like tea or milk/sugar? 'Cause reallllllly close to the Campus is this one place I love going to. Funny though, most nor-cal people call it pearl milk tea, so-cal people call it boba. Tomaytoh, tomahtoh. :D

I know for certain that the rev d PBs ships with stickers.

Am I a loser for actually knowing about when they started shipping stickers with their computers?

hey iBlue, I mentioned (I guess maybe not clearly enough) that Apple started adding it to their computers and iPods fall '04.

So that's why you didn't get any.

Too bad, though I got a computer right before fall '04 so I felt more gipped at the time.

Now I have enough for years to come.

woohoo! My iPod Mini arrived today, and so I got it out of the box to make sure it works (gonna be a gift, want to make sure it's not broken) and I barely noticed it came with 2 Apple stickers! It caught me off-guard, and in my shock one of them somehow ended up on my car's back window, and the other one in a desk for safe keeping.

Hey, I'm generous, but only to an extent: those Apple stickers were MINE!.

I look forward to two more from my iMac. When I figure out where to put the last three, I'll tell you; thinking maybe put one on the back of the Mini, but the last two?

Um. AWESOME.
I geeked out! :)
The clerk at company store remembered me from a half hour prior (my dad and I got lunch, then went back for a 1/2 price wwdc shirt for my brother) and he started talking to me, asking if I was an employee. When I said I was about 6 months too young, he starts talking to me about how sometimes there are over-qualified, Mac-centric 16 and 17 year olds that could TOTALLY work, but there's stuff that prevents it from happening easily. I could get a permit from the state, but bla bla bla.

Sheets of stickers= the two you get with your mac. I HAVE 22 NOW!! MUAHHAHAHAA!

hehe. :D
