Wave-Themed OS X Banner Goes Up at Moscone West for WWDC 2013

Maybe its the new wave of mac computers?

ie. No more Mac Pro, but now its the Mac Wave. It's all touch screen or camera-based and you wave your hand. :confused:
 
All of the "Sea Lion" speculation is great. I have been speculating for a couple of years that they would move to sea life theme after the cats. It shares the same natural, organic, lovable vibe as the cats.

Sea Lion
Orca
Dolphin
Ray
Sea Turtle
 
If there was ever a time to be a swap of animals for future mac os releases i'd expect them to start with something like "Tiger Shark", then move no to various shark names for updates.

From land to sea predators and both hold a similar view to the public.

A font is the entire family. Take Helvetica Nue for example. Helvetica Neue is the font where Helvetica Neue ultra light is the typeface.

Like when listening to music and you like a specific song on an album, you say great song, not great album.

Although you could say "great record" to describe either.

It will be. We're on yearly release cycles. IIRC Mountain Lion was announced at WWDC and was on the App Store a couple of hours later.

You do not recall correctly. It was announced at WWDC but was not released until July.
 
I love this banner. Wasn't as big a fan of the iOS banner.

But guys: Helvetica Neue Ultralight is all over the place. Apple's use of this font isn't revolutionary or anything. And I'm pretty sure it comes bundled up with your Mac's fonts already. Seriously, it's a beautiful font for certain things but kill me now if it becomes system-wide. It is way too thin for looking at all day. This is an example of a designy font, versus a utilitarian font.
 
XI wouldn't be as cool as X, steve jobs said OS X could be the foundation for the next ten years... well its already past that.

and I'm really liking X as apple OS name. I hope they would stay with X but continue the numbering scheme with OS 10.10, 10.11, 10.12 and then would reset again to just 10 :D. I'm just excited here, don't what I'm talking about :D
 
Where would Apple be without Johny...? ;)

I dont think it ever was as popular as it was in the early 2000s, combing heavy and ultra light words with no spacing was the cool thing to do and appeared on every webpage and techno poster made, it was like the only font ever used for a few years.


then why are people acting like its some secret message? Going crazy over an extremely popular font is weird.

If you get that excited by two thin lines, you musty be fascinated by the Roadway.
 
Maybe the water is in reference to the English Channel...

And maybe, just maybe, they'll refer to American English as 'English (US)' rather than simply 'English'.

But I shouldn't expect so much.

It is not an X...it is part of the safety markings while moving the display into place.
Ala similar X markings with tape on large glass sheets

If you are right that would be hilarious. All this speculation about meanings and fonts for nothing. But isn't that "X" just a little too perfect to be a safety marking?
