WOW that's HUGEMONGUS.... i bet half of them don't know what they're queuing for, n the guy with the purple phone, he's probably waiting for the bus... tee hee... i love the way that they have stopped at the zebra crossing. It would really make my day to see a video where the queue starts to move and we get to see them crossing couple by couple... every few minutes... Small things amuse small minds i guess tee hee hee.

Man that video was magic... What was they were queuing for?.. an Apple Mac shop ????

ahh man i got tired of watching it half way thru but like the page said i watched it all the way thru and i saw a couple guys from the front of the line that were also in the back. they managed to see it once and went back again for a second time also i saw a couple of ppl that just looked like they were waiting in line for the fun of it.

but i have a line thats even longer than theirs. ok everyone grab a piece of paper and a pencil and draw a complete circle. right there u have a line longer than any line that they had in there.

O <--- see

what i want to know is why they were waiting. if they are all graphic oriented then i can see waiting in line if apple just came out with something new but if it was a for a grand opening then i would say thats why i would pay thje first person in line 5 bucks to take my camcorder and record it and then give it back. and to make sure he gives it back i would put a bracelet on his neck and tazer him everytime i thought he would steal my camcorder...*evil laugh*...ok ok i would just zap him all the time and then take the money back and then break the button so that it zaps 4ever....ahaahahahahahahahhaah

ya know even if they were waiting to buy something by the time they even got to the middle of the line most if not everything would be gone. Japanesse folk really like name brand stuff...like Louis Vuton, Gucci, Prada etc... in New York and in Paris at the LV stores the lines are huge and filled with 90% japanese tourist. So i would assume they see this name brand of apple and just want to have it. They are an entire culture based on what you have and is it better than the next...almost like ours but really a lot more aggressive.
