U.S. Apple Store down for maintenance!

Just FYI.

New products?

I heard they let the guy who keeps pressing the button that keeps the store open have a break every few months.

Been down for several hours. AppleInsider said it was supposed to come back online @ 4am EST.

I think MacRumours will melt down if they've just done a silent refresh on the rMBP 😀

No, what would cause a meltdown is if it was only down for some trivial server maintenance, like replacing the fan filters, and not to update any products. There'd be 97,000 people scouring store.apple.com, finding nothing, and reporting the negative results, along with thousands more people speculating on what hasn't been found yet.
