Live Coverage of the Apple Media Event (August 7, 2007)

At some point Job's "One More Thing" will just involve him pulling down his pants and hopping off the stage.

 

[suneohair]

That 2.8Ghz Merom XE is going to be expensive. They are supposed to be $1000 in 1000 bundles. Wow.

It is the Merom XE X7900.

 

[Huw]

Fantastic Stuff! .mac's now coming with 10GB standard storage space!

 

[jlewis2k1]

i hope they will announce a new mac mini....

 

[DOUGHNUT]

Yep, I agree. I'm very disappointed.

just be glad that the Mac mini wasn't completely dropped because that was what was speculated.

 

[HowEver]

Many people buy these computers for what they look like.

Far, far, far more people buy them for the software that comes with them and makes their lives a joy.

Go figure.

Did anyone notice that Steve Jobs spent aprox. five minutes (!) on the new iMac design and then went straight into iLife tutorials?

If anything shows how how boring/similar these designs are to the originals or how minor this product revision is, that's it.

Five minutes! Out of the whole speech probably.

 

[Umbongo]

That 2.8Ghz Merom XE is going to be expensive. They are supposed to be $1000 in 1000 bundles. Wow.

It is the Merom XE X7900.

Yep, surely it'll be way out of price to performance compared to anything else on the market.

 

[Queso]

New iLife!! About time

 

[Burai]

iMovie now integrates all of your videos and is completely redone.

Sounds great. My switching friends always comment that the naming of iMovie makes no sense. And they were right:

iTunes - stores all your music
iPhoto - stores all your pictures
iMovie - movie editor

 

[Cromulent]

So by your reckoning the Core 2 Quad is also dual core because it contains 2 in the title. Go to intel.com, read the C2Es available and realise Core 2 is like Pentium 2 and refers to the family of processors.

Although, at 2.4GHz, it does look likely to be the regular C2D from the MBP.

Read the thread. I have already pointed out my mistake. Jeez...

 

[applemax]

If there was a black option for the new iMacs they'd be perfect

 

[Lesser Evets]

At some point Job's "One More Thing" will just involve him pulling down his pants and hopping off the stage.

haha The emperor already has no clothes. Need he really show it off?

 

[3282872]

I wonder if they'll ever have a Cinema Display with integrated iSight camera/microphone.

Oh God PLEASE, I'm begging Jobs LOL

 

[JohnnyQuest]

The new iMacs are dead sexy.

 

[brepublican]

At some point Job's "One More Thing" will just involve him pulling down his pants and hopping off the stage.

That'd certainly lively up this keynote. This is bedtime story stuff I tell yer

 

[Daveway]

I see no Apple coverage on CNBC.. what are yall talking about?

 

[scott2006]

10:45AM: [Someone's phone rings, Jobs tells them that "You might want to answer that."]

^LMAO

 

[3282872]

At some point Job's "One More Thing" will just involve him pulling down his pants and hopping off the stage.

He unzips his skin and reveals Bill Gates has kidnapped Jobs and has taken over Apple since last year lol

 

[chr1s60]

If it has new iPhone integration that should mean there is an iPhone software update soon right? Didn't he say something about a new option on photos in iPhone?

 

[1984]

Wait for the "One more thing..." As CNBC just pointed out live on TV, there is more hardware most likely to be shown. Notice something sitting under a black cloth in the iLife '08 photo?

New Cinema Displays?

Those are just the two iMacs that were already unveiled. He just covered them back up.

 

[mongoos150]

That 2.8Ghz Merom XE is going to be expensive. They are supposed to be $1000 in 1000 bundles. Wow.

It is the Merom XE X7900.

Sure? What about the 2.4GHz - is this the Santa Rita?

 

[conradzoo]

Bet it's an 30" Apple Tv under the veil.

 

[Derwood]

Unified Keyboard design across all lines...

...is the move that SJ is making and it will be completed with the next MBP revision. I'd stake my steak on it.

 

[rwdebes]

haha, and they call them "The New iMacs"

what you mean dude ?

they just showed the new imacs.. did u ever heard about UPDATING a website ?
they do when the keynote is finished. doh !

 

[revenuee]

the one more thing will be a 30 inch iMac and it will cost 2499 --- BAZOOM



I'm almost thinking about buying the old 24 inch that's sitting in our school bookstore right now ... assuming they lower the price enough

but i'm just waiting for the store to come up anyway --- i'll buy it ... i need a new computer
