Well Apple has been known to sue webmasters who use their look so I don't think you should go for it.

Overall, it's not bad. I like the colour scheme and relative simplicity of it. I'd just change a few things:
1) The fonts. Pick one or two and stick with them. Three different fonts (especially when one's a sans-serif, one's a serif, and one is...I don't know what you'd call it) is confusing to the eye and looks cheesy.
2) The background. In sections where you have text, you'll have to either fade it out a lot more or lose it entirely or else people will have a hard time reading the text.
Hope this helps.If I've helped you out in any way, please pay it forward. My wife and I are walking for Autism Speaks. Please donate, and thanks.
If someone helped you out, be sure to "Like" their post and/or help them in kind. The "Like" link is on the bottom right of each post, beside the "Share" link.

Apple wouldn't and can't sue phong because:
- It's a personal site (he's not making money off it),
- He's in Asia (pain in the arse to chase people Internationally), and
- It's not a "copy" of the aqua interface. Aqua has a shiny glass-looking gradient, whereas phong has a matte metallic-looking gradient, which is similar at best.

Even so, I don't know why you'd immitate apple.com. I hate their website. Beyond the "cool" glass look, it's pretty awful, from the varying width and inconsistent look and feel to the poor information architecture and inconsistent navigation.
