I don't understand why everyone got so excited.

I thought everyone knew Saturday night/Sunday morning is downtime for the Apple Store's weekly maintenance.

Now, if it's down on a Monday night/Tuesday morning, then we have a reason to be excited.

I don't think it goes down weekly.

i wonder when they do maintenance.
i don't know. it seems that every time that i have gone there, the site was up. except for one tuesday morning a few months ago when apple introduced something new.

[edit] BTW, does anyone know how long the online apple store keeps the little green new labels on there new products?

Actually, it does. It's part of their weekly server maintenance. I'd hate to think how bad things would be if they only performed maintenance once a month.
