I’m up and showered and ready to go join the queue for the Keynote presentation by Steve Jobs. But, first stop is breakfast at Mel’s Drive-in. More to come later in the day (blogging, not breakfast) …

Cupertino – The Mothership

On Sunday 10th June, a group of us visited the Apple Company Store in Cupertino, California. It was a major geek-fest, with two carloads of us travelling the 40-odd miles (64km) down Highway 101 from San Francisco to Apple, Inc. Headquarters at 1 Infinite Loop, Cupertino.Without the organisation of Andrew Jeffrey from the Apple University Consortium we would have had to bus it down there. Thanks Andrew!
