I know there is a party at the Apple Store as well:

CompUSA too (PDF):

Looks like Comp is matching the Pre-order deal some of us got from =20
Amazon (for an adl purchase of $400, so it's not quite matching). I've =20=

already got my copy on pre-order (grr, doesn't look like it's shipped =20=

yet) but it looks like everybody is going to have some celebration and =20=

coincident deals, so we may have to hit all three! :-)

Several of us (well at least Jen and I) will at least be hitting the =20
Apple store while on our way to the 9:30 showing of "Hitchhikers Guide =20=

to the Galaxy" which is also premiering tonight. Seems fitting, since =20=

Douglas Adams was one of the all time great Mac enthusiasts. I think =20
he'd be pleased. Any way a group kind of gathered on the CIALUG list to =20=

go to that showing, and we're going. If anyone wants to join a group of =20=

geeks for a premiere night geek film, we're there (I suggest =20
pre-purchase, either on-site or via http://fandango.com ).

Probably need to be there by ~ 9 to get good seats. (maybe before)
