Live Coverage of Apple's 'Back to the Mac' Media Event

[Alfuh]

Man it was painful watching that guy's hand shake and watch him trip over his words. Poor guy

 

[Sam Yikin]

No claps for Lion... awww poor Steve.

 

[Robert M.]

Wow 90 days!

 

[JSmoove05]

The stock has dropped $2 since the Keynote started. . .

I think it has dropped more then that esp if this it....

 

[MercyInYou]

App Store on Snow Leopard, sounds interesting to me

 

[Eidorian]

They were right - all the window management things were getting out of control...Mission Control looks like a fantastic attempt to get them under control again.

The Exposé bundles are a welcome addition. It's part old Exposé and post-Snow Leopard.

This close is still very awkward.

 

[Mike225]

Overall the Appstore could be good for computer illiterate (On any platform), but their iOS type application thing seems kind of clumsy for the same users.

 

[Cougarcat]

Cool, app store coming within 90 days!

The one feature nobody wants.

 

[Eddyisgreat]

lol no MBA.

 

[StuddedLeather]

One More Thing. . . Coming shortly.

 

[wolfpackfan]

Winding down. No new hardware.

 

[rorschach]

"Summer 2011"

Yeah. Until they need to pull OS X developers to work on the iPhone 5 and Lion gets pushed back to Fall 2011.

 

[smiddlehurst]

HOLY.... Snow Leopard app store in 90 days! Bloody hell wasn't expecting that.

 

[chugg]

Uhhhhhh how is this worth an OS upgrade in ANY WAY? This is ridiculous.

 

[Mochi Hana]

The Mac store icon looks a whole lot like the iTunes icon. D:

 

[Apple Corps]

So it looks like no new hardware update?

What other reason to bring down the Store for an update?

 

[PeterQVenkman]

I really think this Mac App Store is a good idea.

You have to submit to it, which means Apple can block you for no reason, and Apple takes 30% of your price.

On an internet enabled computer? A boon for consumers, just another way to take money from developers. No thanks!

Uhhhhhh how is this worth an OS upgrade in ANY WAY? This is ridiculous.

It's the trojan horse for iAds on the mac. It's worth it for Apple.

 

[ldkaplan]

As a Mac user, I am delighted. Steve said so.

 

[Small White Car]

I think it has dropped more then that esp if this it....

Considering 60% of Apple's business is NOT the Mac that would be a dumb thing to sell right now. The stock is going to keep going up based on the iPhone alone.

 

[Salacion]

Macbook Air?

 

[alm99]

Epic Fail

 

[emmab2006]

The one feature nobody wants.

Exactly , its Closing the Mac OS X Platform to there own Specifications , its ridiculous ... i am not impressed with OS X Lion , i know its only a preview but i am not impressed this is something Microsoft would do ?... i am stunned and so angry

 

[Jimi5A1]

so the big new feature of 10.7 will be coming out in more or less it's final form in 90 days....wow really disappointed in this event.

 

[trekkie604]

open within 90 days ... *silence*

 

[saxon48]

Well at least I got FaceTime to mess around with later...
