Ancient Kuwaiti Apple Store

For the real Apple archivists, The Unofficial Apple Weblog brings us some nice photos (and the associated blog entry) of a closed and decaying Apple store in Kuwait.

What struck me the most though were the “Think Different” banners. They’re gorgeous and seeing them in the store window gathering dust and being unappreciated pissed me off. The place felt like a graveyard. In a way it was, the rainbow logo, the beige machines, the old Think Different banners, the Garamond typeface, etc. That’s the Apple that existed when I first started using Macs, and its all gone now.

If you ask me, this dude’s a little too romantically attached to a corporation. But, you know, to each his own.
