This video leaves out too many parts of the keynote. It's missing the part about the new Macbook Pro, the new Mac Pro, the new Mac Mini, the new Thunderbolt Display, etc.
It's a great moment in time but you don't get those many times if even once in your life, even Jobs makes this point at the start. C'mon!
However I do enjoy watching it, as I never saw it until years later but now market Apple blasted into space is mature and unless they're rolling out an iCar you won't get this too often. Something that equally disrupts the old and creates the new. Once Apple got in first it didn't mean they would stay on top forever but they got the benefit monetary advantage of getting there first and fast in a way people loved. Everyone else followed. They are still follwoing in many respects. No can design a laptop without it looking very like any of the styles of Apple machines. Sometimes it hard to tell the difference on first glance and I'm sure other brands are trying to cash in on that confusion.
Apple took computing beyond the geeks and nerds and brought it right into the family and home. That's a big deal.
Actually, it looks like that's exactly what it is, disable and hide.-Delete Stock apps (not just disable or hide)
Flying on planes also used to be a thrill at one point.Not even close! Keynotes used to be a thrill!!!!
Where?everything looks so badly done and unfinished..

Where?
Nope, in my 40s.If your age ends in the word "teen", then it's perfectly acceptable for you to get excited about the "good stuff".
For the rest of us "old and jaded" people, the posts here pretty much spell it out.
But then it would be too easy to grab someone's iPhone and unlock his computer along the way; it relies on the watch because it uses biometric info to certify it's "you".I hope they allow the iphone to be an identifier for the quick macbook/pro login not just the watch... For those of us that think the watch is a waste of time/money,
Because core functionality remains the same.Your first time watching wwdc then? If not what are you talking about. And how is announcing new versions of each OS not of interest to Joe Public?
BUT...with all of that said, I'll stick with Apple - there is no way I would go back to the slop that is Windows. You couldn't pay me to work with such an unstable, unsafe system again.
It is mainly software. However, there are expectation to have hardware to let the software to run on.I haven't been following Apple long enough to know this - but is it to be expected that the release new hardware at WWDC, as opposed to the September event? Thought the Developer Conference was supposed to be focused on software etc., not hardware?
Sincere question, btw.
Considering that this is the "Apple Worldwide Developers Conference"... of course nothing was going to excite you. Looks like Apple have gone back to concentrating what that event was originally purposed for and saving the hardware updates for the latter part of this year.
It's a developer event. Not a media event. You're just hurt because you're impatient. Personally, I'm glad they're not forgetting what they're good at... making ace software. Hardware is secondary now until they release something big hardware wise when the cost of the technology comes down.
Very ho-hum!
All those changes to Messages are merely glitz.
The new features in Sierra don’t really warrant a new version number. This all could have been included in macOS 10.11.6 (for that matter with the change to “macOS” they should have dropped the “10.” prefix in the version number).
We need a modern file system, not UI bloatware!
Everyone does this a lot of the time. What is new or surprising about any of that?Apple does some innovative stuff, but in too many ways they are just flagrently following the market on clever features in other apps and operating systems. The ratio of clever/copy is getting worrisome. My next computer will be a PC (*sad face*) if I can transition my iPhoto database.
Where is who? Apple?Actually, it looks like that's exactly what it is, disable and hide.
I'm OK with that, it's just one more folder that can go away. But until it really deletes them and allows me to replace them with a 3rd party app, it's pretty useless.
[doublepost=1465932255][/doublepost]I can't help but have flashback to another company that single handedly created a new type of mobile phone market. That became leader in the field. That everyone had to have. That had so much cash in hand it could not possibly fail. Then they started losing market share, yet the faithful kept saying, it's not about market share, it's about making money. They rename the OS, they renamed themselves, they even introduced stickers for their proprietary messaging platform.
And where are they now?
That's the summary, I want the detail.
Where is who? Apple?

Nice parable. Similar to the three bears and goldilocks except it won't end like that.Blackberry.
While not there yet, let's not forget that they are far behind Android in market share. So far, it's still worth it for developers to write for both OS. But at what % of market share is the developing and supporting not worth it anymore?
