I tried to load the Apple page a little bit ago (like 10 minutes maybe, so at 3:30 ET), and Safari timed out after 60 seconds. I didn't think much of it though, and it's working now.
P.S. by the way, we're in Daylight time, zuggerat, not standard
besides, i'm using a PC with windows xp right now.
site loaded right up. maybe your ISP had some routing problems. i know with my ISP the DNS servers will sometimes go down.
I was in the North Michigan Avenue store shooting a practice movie for my Studio Series class this afternoon when Apple.com went down (or whatever happened). We tried to shoot logging onto the Apple.com website as part of the movie and couldn't.
