If you ever want to link to the Apple Store, but can't because the stupid link times out, there is a solution.

Instead of this: PowerMac G5 (http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/72604/wo/NQ6fqciw9oqZ2UYmRjI2rzSOB7I/0.0.9.1.0.6.21.1.2.1.2.0.0.1.0) (this link will give you a timed out message if clicked)

Use this: PowerMac G5 (http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/72604/wo/0.0.9.1.0.6.21.1.2.1.2.0.0.1.0) (this one won't)

What's the difference between the two URLs? I stripped out the /NQ6fqciw9oqZ2UYmRjI2rzSOB7I that's in the first one - my session identifier for that particular Apple Store visit.

Actually both are working for me right now. But that is probably because your session is still active. Thanks for the tip, it is really annoying when people link to the apple store (but not anymore).
