Huge houses and jets?
Unlike other tech CEOs, Mr. Cook rents a modest condominium and can often be seen by himself at the local Starbucks on Sunday mornings with his iPad. I don't believe he owns a car, let alone a jet.
So I'm really having a moment here ..
5th to 9th when are the exciting hardware/ios 11 announcements? Monday?

No. Apple created Swift to further close down access. A filesystem does not do anything for developers.
I'm certain MacOS Van Nuys was a joke: https://cifarelliblog.wordpress.com/2014/06/18/van-nuys-the-porn-capital-of-the-world/
You know why we haven't heard as many rumors? Because Mark Gurman's sources dried up when he left 9to5 for Bloomberg. I did a brief stint at 9to5Mac as an author several years ago and talked to him several times and he was really freaking protective about his sources.
One time I opened up his draft in WordPress about the iPhone getting a 128GB size or something and he flipped his crap and disabled my login. I was just reading it because the headline in the post listing grabbed my attention. I couldn't compete with his sources, the international writers would get the overnight scoops, and I was relegated to smaller scraps of industry news that didn't make enough ad revenue to be worth it, so I didn't bother sticking around after he disabled my account. He used to knock it out of the park on a regular basis and since going to Bloomberg he hasn't really broken anything. I think he knew his good sources were going away and went for the high paying job. He can now make up crap and nobody calls him out on it because he is the young expert and everyone else is old and doesn't understand. I enjoyed my brief stint writing there, especially since I don't have much of a background in writing except on forums and Twitter. The site owner Seth is a really nice guy, but Mark was a jerk.
Alternatively, it could be that his sources went away because Apple found some way to clamp down on leaks, or did some kind of sting operation to find out and fire the loose lips around 1 Infinite Loop. Either way, it's exciting to see a WWDC with so much mystery around it. I'm kind of tempted to not read anything on MacRumors until the keynote just in case something leaks at the last moment. It's one thing to read something months in advance, and quite another to read it a couple days before and spoil the surprise right before the announcements.

Where it says MacBook Pro it should in fact say iMac. It is not realistic at all to be expecting a MBP refresh since that was done 6 months ago and these devices are selling very well. The iMac is something Apple has discussed in their recent interview so it is far more likely that when any new Macs are introduced at the WWDC it is going to be an iMac, not an MBP.
Looking at previous years it remains to be seen whether Apple is going to announce any hardware at all. This is primarily a software event as it is about developers. With the current a mount of software Apple has there simply isn't that much time to discuss hardware too. The more realistic expectation would be macOS, iOS, watchOS and tvOS. No more than that.
So I agree with the person who said to expect nothing but disappointment with this WWDC. He's probably right if you look at the unrealistic lists posted by many (including this one from MacRumors). People need to lower their expectations to a realistic level if they don't want to be disappointed.

Hardware announcements may or may not happen (plenty of WWDC keynotes didn't have any), but iOS 11 is indeed very likely. All that will happen Monday morning.
After that, starting with the State of the Union (sort of the developer-side second keynote), the remainder of the week is sessions, labs, etc.
It's only there to meet a price point. If they drop the price on the MacBook then they kill the air. I can't see them having their cheapest notebook start at $1300.
You guys are getting so worked up for something that doesn't matter. Who cares if Apple doesn't introduce anything new Monday? It's going to be ok. Go out, watch a movie, have a beer, get laid!!! There are more important things in life folks!
The 17" MBP was discontinued 5 years ago, why would anyone be expecting a replacement for that? And I believe time capsule was discontinued last year as well
Introducing IOs 10s
While it might look familiar on the outside it is entirely new on the inside.

I want my iPad and iPhone to automatically unlock with the Apple Watch (like the MacOS does now). Or maybe even with bio metrics...
lift phone, watch proximity detected, watch confirms your unique heart rhythm (which the watch is constantly monitoring) and automatically unlocks phone. Or something like that.

An end user accessible file system let's app developers create mobile apps that are identical to their desktop equivalents. No need for the user to alter their workflow or learn unintuitive workarounds.
Actually not. He owns a house in his name, the others are in his boyfriend's name. Same with his house in France. Not a big secret.
I'm anticipating big changes in iOS 11 for sure. Wouldn't mind something new for macOS 10.13 either. Also would like to see a bezelless 10.5" iPP. The Siri speaker sounds cool but I'm deep into the Echo world now and don't plan on changing. I just got an Apple Watch, so watchOS 4 will be something I'll watch for. Not an Apple TV guy so tvOS 11 is not interesting.
Hey guys and girls! I will be unable to watch it when the presentation begins because I am going to be like 30 minutes late. Do you guys and girls know of any way to watch it from the beginning after it has begun? Suggestions much appreciated!
