You aren't being politically correct. 'Consume edible substance of nutritional value' is the phrase you're looking for. You are being insensitive to Skeletons.

Because Tim Cook is a godammed boob of CEO, that's why.
Supply-chain chief? The best!
But CEO of the world's bggest company? Not so much.
Seriously, just look at how badly Apple has been doing with him at the helm. They are just not making any profit at all.
Justin Bieber sells millions of records, he must be the most talented musician to ever exist.
But seriously, I'm not expecting much from this event. It's mostly gonna be stuff that would/should normally be a silent update on their website (we haven't gotten anything like that in recent memory). WWDC will probably be more exciting unless iOS 10 and OS X 10.12 are as underwhelming as iOS 9 and El Capitan were.
Yeah, but a lot of us have 9.3 already on our devices. Prob won't be any new features in the GM. Perhaps new wallpapers. Who knows. Maybe there are holding back something for the GM. Let's hope.
How about apart from announcing new products they will bring people in on what is going on @ the Infinite Loop?
In other words, speak about future plans and strategies. Not in any detail of course, but giving an update of what they have in mind regarding e.g. cars (maybe), Siri, privacy and the vision for development of the iOS/OS X ecosystem.
It's hard to imagine they will not use this event to drive home their strategi, stance and motivation in the Privacy-area. The world will be watching and
will not miss the opportunity.
I think it will be totally epic, added bonus will be some new iDevices.

You don't get it.
A CEO should have a long term vision for the company. Being CEO of Apple and milking lots of money is not difficult at all, he basically walked into a ready-made position, building something new is.
Cook is no risk taker, he is playing safe.
If Justin Bieber's job is to make money or be popular then he sure is talented at that. With CEO's main part of the job being to make money so that the employees and shareholders are happy and to make the company popular and liked, well, seems like that job is being done.

So you are judging him on long term that hasn't even happened yet. We are in short term right now, based on what you are implying, and they are doing better than well, but we need to ignore that and judge on long term which hasn't happened yet and which we can't actually predict. So forget what's actually real and make judgements on what hasn't happened and what basically people make up. Sure, that clearly makes good sense.

Sure, but someone can still be looking toward the final release of that version (which in the minds of many seems to be associated with the event, at least in the sense of timing).
Seriously, though, how much more can Apple cram into the OS? It's already gotten so bloated and convoluted that it's more of a pain to use than ever before, for little actual gain.
And yet they blow you away every year.

"Before I go, let me introduce the new CEO of Apple: please welcome on stage Mr STEVE BALLMER!!!!!!!!"
iOS major releases are normally carried out at WWDC's, but I thought I'd throw it out there.
Hm.....an Apple event and people talk about new watch bands. Or an smaler iphone....from an technical point of view already behind what Samsung just has released.
However the possible Ipad sounds promissing if it gets the specs of the pro.
But still....not really something new or exciting if these would be the main topics of the event.

It's only a small event 3 months into the year, there is still WWDC and most probably the September event (where Apple will announce the iPhone 7 and possibly more) to go.
I have high expectations for the event, one reason is that apple may actually talk about new hardware be it phones or something else. Wwdc is software only, fall events for iphones and ipads. So spring one may introduce new smartphone, new ipad and maybe some new things. Excited
