Apple 10 Year Anniversary Sale Sunday? (UPDATE)

Is Apple celebrating 10 years in retail with a super secret sale on Apple products this Sunday?  The self inspired internet rumor mill is splatting speculation that this Sunday May 22, 2011 Apple stores will celebrate 10 years of success with 10% off specific items.  An anonymous source close to Apple said that the windows will be covered with black curtains and some employees will be working the overnight shift from Saturday into Sunday. Rumor has it that there is new hardware to install that no one can do anything with until after the stores close on Saturday night. Something big could be in the works if the sources are correct. Watch this historical video of Steve Jobs sneak peak at the first Apple Store opening at Tyson's Corner, VA:
