Sigh
OK, I need an explanation one last time in BIG PICTURE words in one post.
This IRC java chat isnt working for me.
So --how do I watch the keynote and also chat with you guys?
The front page updates - www.macrumors.com - don't need java right? it will just refresh automatically without me doing anything?

Careful! You might anger the mac gods!
Wait until Apple puts it on their website tomorrow. Apple sucks for not doing a webcast. plain and simple.eVolcre said:

Are you frigging kidding me??? I've been wiatinf fot this for so long, stayed up all night chatting with this forum and you want me to wait more???
I don't mind if I can't chat in real time, but i want to at least see the updates as they happen.
the way I see it, www.macrumors.com will redirect to the update page when it starts and i don' t think i need java or anything
HA!! Try explaining that to a chick!kddpop said:not to nit-pick...but allow me to nit-pick...

Yes, the front page will update with the latest news as the keynote progresses.
As far as chatting, you would need an IRC client, unless the forums stay up.

I believe yours is the most likely I've read so far.
My prediction:
- no new hardware. 6 months early with Intel - c'mon people? When has Apple ever been early with hardware?
- Keynote will be about iLife '06, more iTMS TV/Movie stuff, and a few demos of Intel apps
- everyone here will be up in arms claiming that Apple promised them iBooks and MMMCs (Mac Mini Media Centres)
A boring prediction, yes. I hope I'm wrong.
no java required.
it will update in javascript and if you don't have javascript, it will update with a refresh.
the time approaches. People who are impatient can watch a blank screen at http://www.macrumorslive.com

What metric is that based on? How long after the last click are users/guests logged out?
It's asking too much of Apple to be as cool as Microsoft showing the CES keynote as a live webcast, and actually do the same for the MWSF. Everything Apple does is so secretive, even while they're showing it to the public. Pisses me off.achie25 said:Maybe that is the big announcement this year... that next year MWSF will be a webcast

The killer is that they did it a couple of years ago, so we all know its technically feasible... Apple just decided they didnt want to expend the effort...
I know you're a MR god, but are you sure? I don't see anything on that page (the square gray java box that people are describing). I do have Javascript, but not Java enabled on my web browser.arn said:
AppleInsider have a story on ( http://www.appleinsider.com/article.php?id=1448 ) intel iMacs and MacBook Pros.
What is the point of iMacs - they've just been refreshed, and plenty fast enough, why would Apple need to make iMac Intels so quickly. iBooks and PowerBooks are in need of a desperate upgrade.
