“In Palo Alto, shortly past noon, shoppers got more than a new shiny object
– Apple CEO Steve Jobs showed up and hispresence gave everyone a giddy
brush with Silicon Valley high tech fame.
Wearing a black hoodie and jeans, Jobs , who came with his wife and daughter,
scanned the displays of tech goodies and watched Apple employees give ipad
how-to demonstrations.
And of course he drew amazed gazes from shoppers already expressing excitement

“I love the ipad,” one twenty something female shopper said to Jobs.
