You guys who want mac minis.. What do you use it for? As your main desktop? Hook up to the tv?
What we're hoping is that both the new Mac Mini and the new TB Display will support VESA FDMI so that we can create a modular iMac.

FINALLY. Someone else who sees this.
Apple Events have, for awhile now, become parodies of themselves.
Same tired cliches, catchphrases, tropes, buzzwords, graphics, etc., etc.
Steve created these to mean something
Now they do them just to do them. And for spec bumped products, no less!
What Apple must do is stop having events for every product release.
They've become watered down & not guanteed blowaway like they once were.
A specialized splashpage on thier website plus press notices are more than enough.
Save the events for really special things.
That way, when they do happen, the public will think:
"Oh, crap-this one's a biggie 'cause Apple doesn't have these events for just anything!"
Example:
DESERVED EVENTS
iMac [G3]
iMac [Sunflower]
iMac [G5]
iBook [Clamshell]
iPod
iPhone
iPhone 3G
iPhone 4
iPhone 5
iPhone 6/6 Plus
iPod Touch
iPod Nano [The one with the camera & played games. Thier best nano ....]
MacBook Air [Pulling it out of an envelope .... Fantastic!!]
AppleTV
iPad
iPad 2
iPad Air
AppleTV Set
Whatever it is Tim said is: "... unknown & not rumored about."
DON'T DESERVE EVENTS
iMac upgrades
iPod upgrades
iPhone 4S
iPhone 5S
AppleTV upgrades
iPad 3
iPad 4
iPad Air 2
See? Save it for something very special & unique, not EVERY flaggin' product!
Again, that way, the events will once again be meaningful.
Apple should hold back iCloud Drive on iOS until Yosemite is released. There are going to be a lot of angry folks that upgrade and break the connection to Mavericks.
If you can't afford it then don't buy it.
I was just being silly but if you have nothing positive to say, don't respond to my posts in the future. Appreciate it.
Still 1GB RAM or no?
No iPod Touch 6th gen?
I still have my iPad 4, but I just got a MBPr and I love it. I use it all of the time and I use my iPad a lot less. Since I just ordered the iPhone 6, I might actually get to the point where I won't even need the iPad since the iPhone 6 might be big enough to use instead. Time will tell on that one.
I, unfortunately, see the larger screen iPhones doing some cannibalization of the iPad market. That's just a hunch on my part.
More predictable iDevice upgrades, why even bother with a "media event?"![]()
Will be sticking with my Ipad Air but I can't wait for Yoesmite.

When will Apple fix iTunes? Do the executives at Apple actually use iTunes? If they did they would see how frustrating it is and maybe do something about it.
My (read: my wifes) iPad 2 is getting a bit long in the tooth, and iOS 8 won't make it any faster.
But boy it's been used a lot. Awesome piece of electronics.
I guess it's time to cough up the money for a new.

I shall be sticking with my iPad Air for the foreseeable future. TouchID on an iPad, whilst a logical update, seems totally useless to me and not worth the upgrade. I barely use the device as it is.
Don't forget about the iPod touches! They upgrade with every new iPhone digit so every 2 years.
iPhone 4, iPhone 5, now iPhone 6
I am really excited to see what they come up with all the iPod lines to revive them. They are a dieing business.
I predict them making the iPod touch only a 4.7" config. So to make the iPhone have more leverage and who wants a 5.5" workout mp3 player?!
Also look at the iPod section for IOS upgrades, its so sad and alone

Is itunes 12 expected to arrive with this update?
If the iPad Air 2 doesn't have more RAM then it's a pass for me. How much would a 5K Retina ACD cost? $5K?I'm sure it would be gorgeous though.
Unless they're releasing new desktop options, this is of no real interest to me. I bought the Air last year, and I can't fathom why I'd need an upgrade for a while. My guess is Apple won't see more of my money until Broadwell ships.
