The Lego Apple Store

Man, for all of the gadget lovin’, excellent software, and community power floating around the Mac crowd, this is the real reason why I’m such a fan of the cult of Mac: someone loved the Apple Store enough to make a Lego version of it. Just awesome — look at the little nanochromatic iPods, the touches and iPhones, the iMacs and even a Cinema for good measure. The only thing missing, really, is the black t-shirted Geniuses, complete with little credit card swipers so you don’t have to go up to the counter.

Really great. I don’t know what kind of loyalty exists that would drive a person to recreate a retail space in Lego form, but I’m strangely glad it’s out there somewhere.

Star Trek: The Experience may experience the genesis effect and come back to life…

This article lets the cat out of the bag, stating that a deal to return Star Trek: The Experience to Las Vegas is close to being signed. This is great news, as when I went to the attraction the one (and only) time this past summer I did not get to do the Klingon Encounter or eat at Quark’s bar (lines were too long for the latter and I ran out of time to do the former). If it reopens, I’d consider a return trip to Vegas just to do those two things…
