Apple comes to Maine [finally]

Many years ago my parents bought my first Apple (a II+) from Harper
Electronics, one of the first Apple dealers in the US. Several
subsequent machines came from Harper in later years...but about a
decade later he was gone, leaving only a couple of small resellers to
fill the void. Finally, Apple has returned.

No longer will I have to drive to Boston to sate an desperate
itch...woohoo! First 1000 receive a free t-shirt, we are within the
first 200 and I am embarassing pleased. Mind you, given Maine's
commitment to Apple (every seventh grade student gets one), this store
should have opened years ago...but better late than never.

Now, if we could just get a Trader Joes this state would be quite
civilized. N.B. This is the longest thing I've typed on my iPhone and
it was remarkably painless.
