Bostonist Went To The New Apple Store And All We Got Was This Tastefully-Boxed T-Shirt

Bostonist was permitted to set foot in Boylston Street's gleaming ice palace of an Apple Store this morning, in advance of its Friday opening. An Apple spokespersonage gestured and informed us that the store's floor is from Italy and that the store's employees are from the Boston area. (Bostonist recognized and was recognized by a former Diesel barista.) The staircase, we're assuming, is from the future. Mayor Menino blessed the whole endeavor and laid hands on a MacBook.

There was no Kool Aid on hand today, but the Apple faithful drank something before donning their identical blue shirts. (C. Fernsebner)

Thanks for the photos! Do you have any that actually show the space, instead of cropped details?

"Thinnovation" is like some kind of horrible Rachel Ray neologism.
