...you totally should be. Bostonist just swung by to check out the line at 815 Boylston Street, and there are definitely not more than 30 people there, cordoned off to the side of the store in aluminum fencing that makes them look like some kind of sad, nerdy petting zoo. T-shirts and possibly other swag will be available for the first intrepid folks in line, so we think it's worth cutting out of work early, chilling in line for a while, and maybe getting some free stuff--not to mention geek bragging rights. Bostonist already saw the inside of the store, but we still feel strangely compelled to wait in line for the chance to set foot in there again as soon as we can. Oh, Steve, you have wooed us with thinnovation!

I wonder if a t-shirt is really worth waiting in some kind of "sad, nerdy petting zoo." I'm a proud Mac user, but only prospects of a new iPod or other such gadget would get me in that line. I'll probably be at the store on Sunday for the concert they're having, though.
Aw. As one of those in line, it's not nearly that bad. We got umbrellas!
If it's the same shirt they gave us yesterday: be aware that it is a Boston-specific design, printed on a green-monster-colored American Apparel shirt. On the other hand, it seems to be a men's large, which means it's a dork nightgown for me.
Waiting in line for anything like this is borderline psychotic.
We hung out in the "sad, nerdy petting zoo," and had quite a lot of fun.
