This looks funnier than it is, what appears a lot like an iPod in Google Maps.



There were a whole lot of stories surrounding it, including that Apple had converted a coal mine like this to commemorate their 30th anniversary, "a mine Steve Jobs won during a poker game with the late publishing/ gaming tycoon Kerry Packer". Of course, none of it could be true, since Amit Agarwal discovered the building looked exactly the same in 1999, before the first iPod was built.

Oh, well.
