Live Coverage of Apple's March 2015 'Spring Forward' Event

None of the usual hoots and hollers so far.

Best keynote I've seen them do in quite some time. Pretty great MacBook.

But geesh.... 8gb ram...

is 8gb ram the norm still? I mean I would love to 16gb ram but that would ram up the price for cheaper Mac Books.

Geez what a great looking 46 year old

I can't keep thinking to myself.... The phone bouncing on her arm is tracking the same data as the watch...

Have you ever run before? You can't look at the phone on your arm.

Still, this will be a hard sell for me until it gets gps in the watch itself. I hate carrying my phone with me when running.

Retaining the same battery life (barely, if at all) isn't exactly an achievement considering that it uses at least 3 times less power hungry Core M instead of Broadwell-U.

Presumably Apple could have given you 16 hour battery life if they'd been prepared to make it a couple of mm thicker.

Can't help feeling that most of this event has been killing time because they don't have the content or announcements for an event.

 

[MrGimper]

Blah blah .... hahahaha <applause>
Blah blah blah..... ahahahaha <applause>

They need to show this on some short women. It looks good on tall models, but what about the average person?

 

[AppleScruff1]

Get Gisele up there if you want to push fashion.

 

[MacGekko]

"graciously accepted" to get free publicity for her charity.

 

[JustMartin]

SO YES, IT WILL LAST AN ENTIRE MARATHON.

There. Had to get that in.

It was a half marathon - and we don't know how long it took her

 

[Neepman]

Someone give that woman a sandwich.

I can't keep thinking to myself.... The phone bouncing on her arm is tracking the same data as the watch...

Exactly, I don't even like using my 6+ on my 10K's.

For me, a half would take around 2 hours.

this exchange is awkward

 

[anthorumor]

Add 3 more of that port + a processor that can actually do something more than browsing and I'll buy this right now.

As of now this is a beautiful machine that improves on some things that are very important to me but sacrifices the very basics of what I expect a laptop to do. In other words, it's nearly useless.

Yes, that's for the MacBook 2.

 

[td2243]

This is nauseating

 

[Wild-Bill]

posing with her fancy apple stuff next to starving africans. what a bitch xD

ROTFL

No former supermodel is going to convince me to buy a watch.

Maybe someone should develop an app for the watch to remind her to eat something.....

 

[TS19]

So cringy. This is unbearable.

 

[Dekema2]

this exchange is awkward

I came back here just to see if there was a comment like this

 

[SmOgER]

you can't be serious ?

I think he means it's a overkill, which it certainly is for this kind of device. It's a great selling point, but it's pretty much useless on this device. With so little processing power and so fast SSD, 4GB for a base model is more than enough.

Does feel that way .....

This part was quite lame.

 

[iGeek2014]

Geez what a great looking 46 year old

So good looking L'Oreal airbrushed the Hell out of her a couple years ago!

 

[wrightc23]

This is all pretty strange, lots of worthy fillers. They've really not got much to say. I blame Tim.

 

[OSXMavericks]

Damn this convo is unbearable to watch.
