Last week saw the opening of Apple's new NY Fifth Avenue store - an event marked by throngs of Machead faithful descending on the glass cube shrine of the electronic cult of Jobs.

And all very jolly it was too, according to the official pics of the event, with the great unwashed rubbing shoulders with the great and the good in unbridled scenes of joy and celebration.

Naturally, the morning after the night before was, as with all good parties, a rather less energetic affair - apart, that is, from one lovelorn chap who decided to avail himself of one of Apple's live webcams:
