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

[Apple Newbies]

I can't say I'm excited about the WWDC announcements but I am curious to see what Apple does.

For Job's sake, educate yourself man...

And here I thought he was dead... no?

 

[PlutoPrime]

My gut is telling me Clark Little took that photo. Love the look.

OS X Liquid
OS X Fluid
OS X Splash?

Those are my guesses.

A new wave is coming...

 

[E.Lizardo]

I think the top candidates are: Ocelot, Sabertooth, and Lynx.

Lynx I think is least likely just because it sounds too much like Linux.

Hmm...maybe Clouded Leopard too, which might make sense if Apple starts making a serious push with their iCloud services.

My money's on Liger.

I can't say I'm excited about the WWDC announcements but I am curious to see what Apple does.

All these random "interpretations" are nothing more than fantasy.

Those that hang on Apple's every word, their every move.... I've never understood what the lure is when it comes to hero worship.

See, as stupid as this sounds, this excites me more than any other banner that Apple has put up, because frankly, they're clean and fresh, where as things were getting cluttered before.

Ive should be CEO, but I guess his role (and level of control) is perfect for him.

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.

Unfortunately, I don't think that using a user interface like this, as many pros do, is conducive to flapping your arms around or using a touch screen trying to select things:

 

[old-school]

Surely this is Logic Pro X given the abstract waves that look like noise.

 

[danielsutton]

what does the wave mean? Nothing like a big cat

If this is a banner advertising OS X 10.9, then it might suggest that Apple is moving away from big cats, and is beginning to use an ocean theme for their new OS X systems...

And here I thought he was dead... no?

Well as an atheist I couldn't exactly say "for God's sake..." so 'Jobs' was the closest thing to a god I could think of.

 

[E.Lizardo]

I'm still holding out for White Lion.

or Def Leppard

I'm here all night folks. Make sure to tip your waitress.

Def Leppard-the answer to the riddle "What has 9 arms and sucks?"

 

[cube]

Probably the wave just means the end of the galaxy.

OS X Leopard Danio - "Small and mighty"

Unless it gets eaten by something bigger, say, like a nine-inch green terror cichlid.

Despite being about a quarter German, I only speak as much of it as you get by default by speaking English, so I'm sure that's correct. Amusingly, though, "no-ya" and "noi-yeh" come out sounding pretty much the same in my head. Maybe it's because years of Romaji have me reflexively read the former as having Japanese-y pronunciation?

As a four quarter German i would say "noi-yeh".

 

[Valkyre]

lmao this thread is hilarious, keep it going folks! haha some epic pictures!!

 

[spinedoc77]

Tim cook spotted leaving the bathroom with a piece of toilet paper stuck to his shoe. QUICK!! Front page news. Woman seen vacuuming the Moscone West carpet. QUICK!! Front page news.

It's funny every few minutes some new piece of news goes up about this event and people are glued to their computer screens waiting for each little tidbit.

 

[cmChimera]

Go read it at 6 points on a retina display and get back to me.

It's small?

 

[shizzler]

I can't believe there hasn't been a photoshop featuring a sea lion with the spinning beachball of death balancing on its nose.

What the hell am I paying you for, get on it internet!

 

[wiz329]

You do not recall correctly. It was announced at WWDC but was not released until July.

I thought it was announced much earlier -- around Feb-ish.

 

[Lunfai]

I thought it was announced much earlier -- around Feb-ish.

Correct. They just showed of the features there which we already knew about because of the early announcement.

It is not a beachball. It is a magneto-optical disc.

[E.Lizardo]

Why do so many assume there must be an "XI"?

Just a wild guess based on,you know,logic?And past names.
OS8
OS9
OS X

That's all we have to go on for now,of course they could do anything and might surprise.

Cheetah -> Puma -> Jaguar -> Panther -> Tiger -> Leopard -> Snow Leopard
