This is make or break. The last 3 keynotes were extremely concerning and disappointing.

I sense disappointment either way, if they don't announce one or do, and reveal the MBP has gone to USB-C only. My late 2013 MBP has the perfect selection of ports to meet my needs, and knowing I'd have to get adapters just to use a standard USB-A device or read from an SD card if I decide to upgrade is not comforting.
I just want them to improve Multi-tasking. Revamping the iOS grid for the iPad would be way too much to ask. But improving the existing Split-view/Slide-view is what I'm looking forward to.
I'm looking forward to a powerful new MBP. And I don't care what color it comes in as long it's not pink. Maybe I should save myself the trouble and start being disappointed now.
I'm not expecting any big earth shaking stuff this WW. Maybe the MBP w/ updated AMD Polaris variant gpu on top end. I do, however, expect next years WW to be the mother of OMG! Apple should be in the new spacely sprockets theater xD . if it were me, that's when you better have one, or more, of those Steve Jobs magic moments. imo
Sapphire edition?

hopefully that clown won't be on the stage again.
After last year I don't think so, he kept stuttering and stumbling he's obviously no good at keynotes. Or he's had some training since.
I'm down. Just glad we aren't taking shots for every time we hear Mandarin being spoken throughout the keynote!
Where's he going? Given his excellent sources, he could start his own Apple news site.
THIS. If doesn't release some new watch band colors, it will be a very disappointing keynote. Here's to hoping for some fruit stripe watch bands and other lame stuff nobody cares about....
Bring on the new Macs! Lets see em Tim, ya fruitcake!
He could definitely start his own Apple news site and get as many views as 9to5Mac get, easily.
Here's a link to the original article: http://www.techinsider.io/mark-gurman-leaving-9to5mac-2016-5 (doesn't say where he'll go next)
I know it's unlikely to happen but I really hope they unveil Apple Watch 2 this month rather than September. I have held off from purchasing the first generation hoping that the second generation watch is faster and has GPS, phone independence, better fitness applications, and better battery life but I am so ready to have one. In my opinion, it would sell better if it launched now rather than with the new iPhone iterations. Maybe too expensive for many customers to purchase both right before Christmas.
Yup, the mythical xMac. They'll sell hundreds of those - and if each customer bought AppleCare they might even make a profit. Might as well open-source OS X and save the hardware development costs. The fact that Apple is still making money selling personal computers is very much tied to the fact that they only make non-upgradeable high-end laptops and all-in-ones.
Computers used to be cheap and upgradeable because every component was hopelessly outdated within 18 months. Those days are gone, and if you do sell someone a computer with upgradeable RAM, SSD and PCIe slots you won't see that customer again until 2026. Apple made a terrible mistake in 2011 by selling me an MBP that let you replace the HD with a SSD - the only reason I need to upgrade now is that El Cap broke my USB3 ExpressCard & I don't want to invest in a Thunderbolt dock with TB3/USB-C on the horizon.
A Mac Mini based on the Skull Canyon chipset would be nice - except it would clobber iMac and Mac Pro sales so don't hold your breath.
hopefully that clown won't be on the stage again.
Didn't understand a single word he said. I ended up reading an article to figure out the features of Apple Music.
Please.... please.... a "normal" RMacBook Pro 15" with skylake CPUs, plus one USB-C, and the "old" keyboard (not the new one with butterfly, or how is called, keys). Not asking too much... 
Okay the '16' in the invite...doesn't mean 2016, but rather a 16" MBP!
Boom! Mic drop.
