Anyone planning to go? I will be there early, and can't wait for leopard. Only 8 days, 20 hours, 45 minutes, and 55 seconds to go! 54, 53, 52...

I should be there, the iphone meet up thread sounded like folks had fun so I may just venture out for this. Plus you know, who can pass up a free tshrirt?:)

How can i pass up a an apple store event! I'm thinking i'll get there a bit later than i did for the iphone though, no need for 8am i think 12 or 1 should be a good time to show.

Hello,
My name is Michael. See ya there! :-)

[KDoyle]

I shall be making an appearance. Who can resist the lure of a free shirt :)

[macaddict68]

Heck yea I plan on being there. Even if there was not a t-shirt. Of course, the t-shirt is just a little bonus :)

[iMouseHD]

sadly I am excited by a tshirt.....and the OS of course...

[kgarchar]

I'm bringing cornhole, anyone else know of some fun games we could play?

[iMouseHD]

What time are folks over?

[barcode252]

I'll be there around 3 or 4 i think.

Has anyone heard if the apple store is closing before the release?

Yeah, the Apple website (under Easton Towne Store) says they will be closed from 4-6. Have fun.

Eh.. I just ordered it online. Guaranteed to be delivered on Friday with free shipping... which means it will probably arrive before 6. ; )

I may buy a new mac also since i'm not far from the low end on requirements and mine is starting to show its age so i will be at the store. Plus why would anyone not want a free tshirt. I still have my dogtags from the 10.3 release. Cant beat free stuff.

[yminoh]

I'll be wearing my "Mac Geek" shirt. Feel free to say hi :-)

Where is the fun in that? You dont have to wait in line in the cold and get it a few hours earlier.......oh wait......:)

[kainjow]

I'll be there with some friends, wearing this (http://www.panic.com/goods/images-items/shirt-software/mininfo-2.jpg) shirt :)

Is it really necessary to line up early? I didn't anticipate too big of a crowd at Easton. How was it for the iPhone release?

The Iphone release had around 200 at the last count that i heard, and people were there at 730am. The last OS release i went to there was 10.3 which had easily 100 but the line didnt form early. From what i recall i got there at around 4 and was in the first 10 in line.

Ill probably be heading over around 2 with the cornhole boards, it's gonna be fun!

Just finished the leopard themed paint job for the boards

[johnnybluejeans]

FedEx just put Leopard in my hands! As much as I enjoyed waiting with you all for the iPhone, I think I'll enjoy myself more in my warm dry home playing with Leopard today. ; )

By the way, that cornhole board is awesome! Have fun guys!

[brtri10]

kgchar...theres no holes in the boards! pretty cool though...

I'll be there between 5-6.

[carrjar]

No one there as of 3 pm.

[iMouseHD]

Eh I ended up going to Microcenter, there where about 10 people there at 545. Hope every one had fun.

[kainjow]

I got there around 6:30, and there was already a decent line. Got a t-shirt, and played with Leopard and the iPhone. Never felt geekier in my life ;)

[yminoh]

Got there about 4:30pm...and there was about 25 ppl in line. Will post pics later.
