Nah
This guys true love is his G5 Mac.
I did not notice him specifically in the time lapse movies until read about it. It was then an easy matter to see him and and drag a still across and zoom in Preview.
There most be a lot of people who love Apple so much to have done more than play the time lapse movie within the html page to have discovered the guys message.
Good luck to the pair.

Great story. I remember the day after the opening people taking about those signs. I couldn't find it on the video though. Perhaps Macworld could put some screen shots up? /forums/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
On a side note - 4 years, the "talk" all the way back at Christmas, the 6 hours fretting - Dude, let's get a little decisive here why don't we? /forums/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Actually, I didn't even watch the whole thing but I did notice the guy's proposal on the day of release. I thought it was very cool of Apple to keep it in the footage as I'm sure they could've omitted it.

why they couldn't add a link to the article is beyond me, i just found it on apple's site:
http://www.apple.com.../timelapse.html

It is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Try the 05:00 am slot as daylight appears, look left foreground. The message is readable. If you want a still, mouse over and down and drag to desktop.

i already took screen captures of it, it wasn't hard to find. look at the jpg links i posted above

Surprisingly, there is growing mileage in this story and I suggest the couple quickly find a willing publicist if a useful bunch of new life start dollars is an objective.

The ceremony has to take place in front of the Glass Cube now. It only makes sense! And, the store is a perfect place to register for gifts. /forums/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Interesting concept for their "Crystal Cathedral"

I saw it when I first browsed each hour of the time lapse footage and I thought it was a very cool idea...and lucky that he waited long enough each time to make sure each sign was captured on the time lapse footage. Good thing she said yes! I agree, they should get married in front of the Apple Cube!
