Store is NOT fine... we didn't see anything new. THAT would've made it fine.
Oh, and did I say "Ths is NOT a joke!" in my previous post?
'Cause what I meant to say was "This IS a joke!"
That was the last one @ 11:59pm PST.
April fools day is now officially over.

Hope Apple updates their page in the "wee' hours of the night and we all wake up to new products tomorrow morning.
Probably gonna have to wait until the week starts though. Either Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, or even next weekend.
Apple has never made announcements on Tuesdays, have they?

But don't trust anyone from Alaska or Hawaii, yet.
New Apple Products On Tuesday!
Those non-foreign yet kinda foreign US "citizens" better not try anything!
Or else I'll swim over to either/both Alaska or/and Hawaii and kick their freezing/suntanned behind.
I don't trust them and their whole "we're not land-locked to the mainland" attitudes towards all of us mainlanders.
It's because we [the only Americans... Central America? South America?! ALL LIES!] trusted non-mainlanders in the first place that the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor, which lead us into the French American war against the middle eastern Indians with our English allies in 1776.

Well, maybe this will bring back the eMac, even though i know deep down someday Apple will trash it from the education market, too. But right now is a time for celebration! Let's hope that Apple will release the new iBooks, so then maybe i can get one of those
And maybe update the iPod Nano's too, maybe a max of 5G or something, becasue i have A LOT of songs.

What good is the Page 3 stuff?
When it only links to https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/190619/?
Is it Mac or MAC? Never know the polls since it links to https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/190619/.
What are those other rumors? https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/190619/
What, is the site being compromised? What good are the deceitful links? I hope this wasn't some kind of a joke. It's past April Fool's and Apple's Birthday now.

I'm guessing Tuesday if they've got anything to release around Easter.
Any release on April 1st would have been drowned out by the masses of April Fools stories that everywhere has, or people would have thought it was a joke 'haha, yeah, right, Mac Tablet, geez'.

Yeah, right. In a statement supposedly dated April 1st, btw.
If you read the rest of the comment, you'll find some interesting comments...
About Apple: Apple is the creator of the hyped and overpriced Macintosh computer. Until recently, Apple buyers could brag in front of PC users about how their PowerPC-based computer was twice as expensive, but also twice as powerful as the Intel-based counterpart. Now, thanks to the Intel transition, Apple computers are only twice as expensive

Im only deveoloping my wine port and other apps for intel only. for people used to codeing for and optamiseing for amd and intel, ppc is one step to far. so 5 new mac apps form me in the next 6 months but ppc users your out. X86 only, easyer for me to code one app for linux and x86 osx than to code a third for ppc. Large developers will do this as well just not as quickly.

You have got to be kidding, right? No one is that clueless, right? Please tell me you're joking...

How is linking to another thread a good April Fool's joke? I don't get it. Seems like an April Fool's joke should make you expect something and then be disappointed or relieved, but no, this thing just takes you to a greeting. I don't feel tricked.
