Apple Cupertino Campus Store

On the way back from a technology marketing forum in San Francisco this afternoon, I ducked off of Highway 280 to visit the Apple Campus Store at their Cupertino headquarters. My 15-inch TiBook has been having an average battery life of say... 20 minutes and needed a new battery, and besides... where else could I get a good deal on Apple merchandise and schmooze?

So... I ended up getting the new battery (at 94% after the same 20 minutes), the Griffin iTrip - punding out tunes on the home stereo from my 20 GB iPod, three new Apple shirts, and complimentary pens and badge holders from the nice guys in Cupertino.

Our home is quickly resembling that of Mr. and Mrs. Shtick when it comes to Apple logo merchandise, but now the wife is all set in her Apple regalia.

Now that I've finally made it there, it'll be rough to see how I can avoid returning again and again with Apple being 1 exit up the road...
