News of the Weird: Steve wants to keep his cube
This is a good one circulating around the Mac Web. Word has it that at the end of the 20-year lease for a new midtown Manhattan Apple Store, Steve Jobs wants the giant glass cube that’ll serve as the store’s entrance back. You read that right; Steve wants his big-ass glass cube back. Yeah.
What are some possible explanations for steve wanting his 32-foot glass cube back?
-To serve as an ice cube for a 400-foot-tall sculpture of a glass of lemonade. Refreshing.
-To serve as Apple’s next big thing that was its last next big thing after it was the NeXT big thing: The Power Mac G80 Cube (provided Apple continues the “G” naming even with Intel-based Macs). Only this time--yep, you guessed it--this cube will indeed be the next big thing.
-Steve has a lot of pet fish and will need a new fish tank.
-All the cool kids have one!
-To keep Bono from spending the night with Bill Gates. What will Steve do until then, though?
Ah well, I’m out of ideas.

No, he’s using to build a life size glass replica of the starship Executor.
So the door might be a revolving cube? I’d like to see a Cube of Silence for privacy a la Get Smart.

He’s going to use it to create the first ship in his Borg fleet?
