tee hee......clutching at straws methinks! I reckon sometime in the next few weeks youll log on to the Applestore and there will be PB and PM updates (although not necessarily at the same time)

Correct. Nobody every did, but Apple is just trying to get a lot of attention with this black curtains still up else they would have been removed already.
reminds me of last year at the paris expo - lol curtains up and me waiting around going come on apple sort it out and pull them dam curtains down.

well, no keynote. that means nothing exciting. if there are powermac updates they will be rather lame, otherwise there would be a keynote. maybe it's just the .mac widgets
after the keynote i had to wait around for about an hour before they whelled in some crates and phil turned up i think we are a little overdue alreadynotheremuch said:
13:00 -14:00 is my guess for today

I wouldn't get too excited - that was with a Keynote, and no some blacked out stands. If it was anything that big, Steve would have done the Keynote.
I'm really curious to see what it is, but as all of the current crop of computers are out ( and it can't be another iBook update - unless they have some coloured cases al la nano black) and the .Mac update has already been announced, I've no idea what it could be....
EDIT: And wasn't that the year Steve couldn't make it due to his cancer? Even then it was on the main stage (I think it was the first Apple unveiling I'd seen), and as these are booths, it really can't be anything as big...
Does anyone - KNOW - what's going on in Paris?
macbidouille.com is down, do you know any other magazine with "live" coverage?
They have to lift those curtains casting shadows over my heart

Amazing how hard it is to just ask WTF is behind a curtain.
Maybe we should wait till the famous 9am. It is Tuesday afterall.

First of all, hello everybody, my first post to these forums (which almost entirely filled empty spaces during last 50 days, while waiting to become a just-switched mac guy).
I'd just like to point out my thoughts concerning the discrepancies between the hardware update/showcase and the missing of a formal Steve's keynote.
I live in Italy, Europe, and I'm not that certain a keynote would be widely accepted as people in the US seem to do ; while I think that a keynote is a must for developers' cons and very (very very) big events, I am not that sure it definitely hits the point in an event such a MacExpo in Europe. In France, especially where higness and spectacular showcases are allowed to french only (joking... a bit )
The point is: missing keynote does NOT translate in missing update/showcase, at least in Europe (NOTE: I do NOT have any stats concerning this).
Nonetheless, perhaps we won't see any update and I'll throw myself in the eternal dilemma between iBooks and PB (as I need a mac 'book these days).

I was just hoping we might see a Powermac with maybe dual cores but even better with more RAM, maybe a bigger HD and better graphics card as standard.
Just a bit of a boost would have been nice. :-( <sniff>
