Apple today is holding its "Back to the Mac" media event, where it is expected to introduce several new and updated products. The event is scheduled to kick off at Apple's corporate headquarters in Cupertino, California at 10:00 AM Pacific Time / 1:00 PM Eastern Time, or just about an hour and half from now.

Just about two hours ago, Apple announced that it will be offering live video streaming of the event to compatible Apple devices. In addition to Apple's video stream, we will be updating this article with coverage as the media event unfolds. We will also be issuing Twitter updates through our @MacRumorsLive account.

Apple's online stores around the world are currently down in advance of the event.

That banner is very cool and very 3D

That's my commute time home. Looks like I'll have to add #macrumorslive to my twitter feed.

Also, I read that caption as "Balmer at Apple's Cupertino headquarters" and started getting fearful for a moment.

Will be interesting to see what's lined up after all this focus on the iOS devices, but just to remind people, this will probably be like last time there was a live conference, which means Apple will probably stream it through their site but only through Safari.

Is there a link on apple.com yet?

Dropbox killer? It would have to have a free, non-obnoxious version. I won't hold my breath. Dropbox is pretty amazing.

[h1r0ll3r]

Yay!

Do you not know the address to apple.com? It's going to be there before you get a "yes" response to that question.

I was going to say the same, actually. I know they always do it for their big conferences, but does Apple usually decorate their own campus with banners for these pressers? It's funny (and awesome) what a big event they make these things.

And maybe I'm just bored, but it is an impressive 3D effect, too. The shadowing is perfect.
