Apple to Host 'Back to the Mac' Media Event on October 20th

[FerdiV]

Hyenas are of the dog family, not of the cat family.

They are more closely related to the cat family. But, actually they have their own family.

 

[gramirez2012]

10.7 Lion
10.8 Mountain Lion

I hope they stream this media event live like they did the Sept 1st event.

10.8 Sabretooth?

10.8 Snagglepuss

 

[Becordial]

Why does engadget get an invite but not macrumors?

 

[LegendKillerUK]

I don't know what to expect from this. Both Snow Leopard and Windows 7 are on par with each other. I have no idea what I'd want new on the desktop now - it's stagnated for so long.

 

[scottishwildcat]

About time! I don't have an ipod (any more), an iPad or an iPhone, its all about the Mac for me.

 

[FerdiV]

My thoughts exactly. We get another 2 years starting now os OSX and bam 11 comes out. Probably a fusion hybrid of OSX and iOS incorporating the first touch features on desktops.

Well, if they do 10.8 Cougar they could go over to the MILF word family.

 

[BeyondtheTech]

Looks like I'm going to have to start putting some cash aside for the next OS upgrade.

...

Ok, done.

(whew, good thing I'm not on Windows anymore!)

 

[Rot'nApple]

Ballmer's response. "Damn-It!"

"If I'm Lion. I'm Dying!"

 

[Woodcrest64]

But a lion is king of the beasts. Nothing can top it. After 10.7 comes 11?

King Kong

I can see 11 coming out after 10.7 in 2 or 3 years.

'Back to Mac' Event, Finally a New MBA?

So it looks like Apple is holding a press event on Oct. 20. While it looks like a main focus will be some form of new OS (it looks like a Lion to me), hopefully some kind of news or release of the new MBA's will be announced.. fingers crossed!

MBA update probabilities....

Any chance for a MBA update in the same day?

 

[DCJ001]

I'm actually quite excited

I hope they enhance Expose to have the side by side feature from Windows 7.

No.

> Ah what timing. The 12" PowerBook G4 is seriously on its last leg.

You broke your PB's only leg?

 

[Mochi Hana]

Back to the Future themed Mac for the 25th anniversary of the trilogy.

You heard it here first.

I'd buy one.

"Back To Mac" Event Predictions

It's coming in a week. What will it be?

- OS X 10.7?
- iLife 11?
- New Macbook Air?
- New Macbook Line?
- iOS Incorporation?

 

[iWonderwhy]

Finally, some good news! Is that an Apple-made invitation graphic I see? If it is, then it HAS to be lion no doubt. Sneak peak at this event, then release for next year? Mmm dunno.

I'd thought a similar thing with Snow leopard. It is a winter animal, end of the year, end of OS X.

I now think we'll be sticking with OS X until there is a revolution in the OS, rather than evolution. And I mean proper revolution, a major change in the way it is used, and not just touchscreen use.

Engadget is a massive AOL owned blog.

Mac Rumours isnt!

 

[Heilage]

This should be good. ^^

 

[Trimmer2]

MBP Update
OS 10.7
AppleTV Apps
iOS 4.2

 

[Brinkman]

W0000000000T

I'll be in the market for a new laptop by the Holidays. MacBook Pro with an nvidia 460m please!

 

[flopticalcube]

No.

It's one of the best usability features of 7 that is missing in OSX so I don't see why not.

 

[hcho3]

Macbook air will be updated for sure.
I see lion, so they are gonna talk about 10.6.5 OS and 10.7 OS for Mac due to be released next year.

Finally, they will announce iLife 2011 and iWork 2011. Other than that, who knows...

 

[csalm87]

I think Panther is left and Cheetah.

Nope. Panther was 10.3 and Cheetah was 10.1.
