You're right, it does look like it says version 1.0. Very strange. Maybe it's just a pre-release shot before they had everything done up right.
Got a tip for us?

Looks pretty legit at first glance but looking at little closer and I'm not convinced.
1. The Finder icon is so inconsistent when compared with the others. You could argue it's due to the fact they haven't been mocked up yet but given the past, Apple has had pretty much everything there or there abouts by the time WWDC hits for demo's etc.
2. The menubar looks nye-on identical to the one we have in Mavericks, even though the new flat helvetica neue font found everywhere else in the screens. Again, you could argue that they just haven't been developed yet, but a system font is a system font and if there's signs of helvetica neue in other places, then it'd be in the menu bar as well, for sure.
3. There's no indicators under the app icons, meaning you don't know what apps are open and what apps aren't. There's minimalism, and then there's just plain stupidity. Indicators have been in the dock since day one, and especially with multiple desktops in mission control, a lot of people couldn't live without them.

Since Mac OS X 10.7 Lion there has been a check box in System Preferences -> Dock for the open app indicators. Granted, they're enabled by default.
They tried that before in one of the betas (10.7 i think) by having them turned off and eventually they came back and on by default again
No indicator lights was a new feature in 10.7, and you can enable/disable them in System Preferences > Dock
The guy who posted the photo is a UI Designer… it probably took him about half an hour to create that (horrible) thing. No worries, I'm sure it will be different. The square icons have always been a symbol of distinction between iOS and OS X; they do not make any sense on a desktop environment.
I actually think this looks great.... Maybe some of the icons could need a bit of work, but otherwise I would gladly put 30 dollars on that.
I marginally like it more than I dislike it.
Like I said earlier, I'm not a regular user of the dock but I preferred it 3D compared to pre-Leopard/iOS7-like flat. As long as I don't invoke the dock after upgrading I won't notice it...much. lol
EDIT:
Thanks.
*copy/paste into Textedit for future reference*
I'm just saying that Apple should take the next step and remove the dock from the system altogether as it continues to develop and evolve OS X.
Ok. Well I'm just saying that it's better for users to have a choice.
Whoever that is, I don't see that in his Twitter feed and I looked back 4 days.
The photo was not blurry enough.
Here's the source. It was made by a UI designer. Concept renderings are becoming increasingly difficult to distinguish from reality.
as someone else said i hope they add something a bit special to this WWDC. instead of the show just ending with no major cool announcements. Besides this is like the biggest Apple event of the year.. Ive been waiting a while for it. Atleast they're letting it be live streamed this year, last year i was just watching a blog which kinda sucked. 5 hours 7 minutes to go!
Clearly to commemorate the first mock up the guy who originally posted it has done.
True, fair enough.Ok. Well I'm just saying that it's better for users to have a choice.
Kind of like the Start button fiasco in W8. It's gone and now it's back. lolI followed the link and got this:

OS X Mavericks supports 2007 iMacs and MacBook Pros. 2007!
Those are 7 year old computers! My iMac is from 2008, and it runs Mavericks nicely. I don't see how that is forcing us to buy new Macs...
