Really neat announcements today. Though, I kind of hate how there is no optical drive or hard drive. :/ Apple, please don't let that be the future.
Besides that, I really like iLife '11 and Lion. Some really great stuff, there.

Wait, really? You mean, Apple sells computers other than the Air? Uh, oh, but I thought...Air is...wait.
So, should I still sell all my current macs out of protest?
I still don't understand people complaining on how they don't like the new Air.
I was waiting for it (not the 11.6") and is going to be GREAT for me to work on Dreamweaver CS5 and NetBeans.
Still don't understand why the Air is as it is? Do you don't understand what the Smart is for? Why people buy it? It has a 600cc engine, unbelivable!

So, I'm a Windows guy...but OS X is just now getting the ability to run application in full screen?
They will do it better than Windows though, since the interface will change accordingly as designed by the developers.
I just checked the online store and the processor is upgradable to 2.13 ghz and the ram can be upgraded to 4gb.
This means the 4gb of ram complainers can go home now.

I'm disappointed with the new Lion's features. They are not bad but they are cosmetic ones only... I would like to see some hot "under the hood" features like a new filesystem, for instance. OSX needs a better FS than HFS+...
Somehow I don't think we even saw a 1/3 of the new features.

Or you know, it could have something to do with the fact that going with a Core i3 means settling for intel integrated graphics, which are much worse than the nVidia 320M... Core i3s have the integrated graphics included as part of the processor itself, eliminating the portion of the motherboard that integrated graphics would have been on. You can't have both on the same motherboard.
Damn. The MBA has a higher resolution than the 13" MBP I was wanting. That really sucks. I can't even wait for the next update as I really need it for Christmas.
Oh well, I really like the Mac App Store, and the iLife trailers will be helpful when I go on holiday next year with my boyfriend and can't be bothered making full length videos for my friends.

Talk about the critics here! Seems that no matter what Apple does lately, too many folks have to bitch about something, and in a major way.
My take:
iLife 11 looks great.
Sneak peak at 10.7 looks good too (it was just a peak - not sure why folks are so pissed about what was shown, including the Mac App store - you don't have to use it, duh).
MBA, well, it looks okay to me. If you want more power, buy a MBP (and get a life).

Please tell me there is A LOT more going into Lion (OS X 10.7) than what they showed, and what they are "previewing" on Apple.com. Also, I'm glad to see they didn't completely ditch iDVD and iWeb, they're still in the package, they just ignored them
no iWork updates.... Man I was just really hoping this Keynote would be the one to tell us they truly haven't forgotten about the Mac, or made it a second class citizen.

Have I seen this before?
Hello Mr. Ubuntu, did you by any chance let anybody called Steve Jobs visit your software labs to check out how you have created the Ubuntu Store? Because I just saw something very similar, just a little more jazzier, with a new name - the Mac App Store!

The new MBA is just another choice people can make to meet their own computer needs. Those who want light portability may find this is what works for them. I can't believe all of the emotion pro and con people are pouring into this. I think people wanted/expected some new major quantum leap development. When they felt it didn't happen-out came the negativity. It's just computers and software people.
