David Chartier and I made the obligatory pilgrimage to Cupertino this week to snag some Apple swag for ourselves, friends, family and potentially even for you - to win in a future contest. We've posted some Company Store and generic campus pics in the gallery for your enjoyment. So... enjoy!

Wow...I've never seen it so empty. I've only ever been there during WWDC, when the hordes have decended on it and the queue to get it looks like the line outside the most popular club in Vegas.

I'm a little disappointed that I never received the mug I "won" in the Design an Apple Invite contest.

Aww... if I had known about the little kid logo sweatshirts, I would have asked for one!
Bob: seriously. At WWDC it was like the line for the bathroom at a White Stripes concert combined with the signing line at a Neal Stephenson appearance. There were hundreds of people waiting all night to get in.

@ DarthBook Lust - there is not. official apple logo merchandise is sold only in person, in the Company Store - unless you count some of the stuff that people buy there and then sell on eBay.

No wonder there were reports of stealing there. They had ipods sitting on lower shelves with no hint of security. Sure, it's the company store, but thieves will be thieves!

Is there a way to get the clothing seen in the pictures without going to the store?

#13: Sadly, no. Unless you can find articles pawned on eBay and the like. Like tons of Apple fans, I would love to be able to pick up this gear all year round at my local Apple Store in Denver as well.

I'm surprised no one has noticed the sign yet. It says Apple COMPUTER, Inc. I call dibs on that sign when they get a new one!

They had a faux black turtleneck (the kind that go up but don't fold back down) with an apple logo

@ Evan D - I just checked my high res original for you :) on the bottom shelf, on the right, is a luggage tag. The silver box thing I think you are referring to is a business card holder. Sorry we're limited to 800x600 max in the gallery, so some of the detail gets lost on wide shots.
