Of course there are no hardwares. Phil was shooked when he said he can’t innovate his “a**”

This is either going to be the most boring keynote in a really long time... or Apple has really tightened up security.
"Apple was initially planning to introduce a range of new features that included a refresh of the Home screen with a redesigned app grid, a revamped CarPlay interface, improvements to core apps like Mail, and new features for the Camera and Photos apps, but these features have been delayed until 2019, according to Bloomberg, to focus on under-the-hood improvements."
meaning they are not ready. it's been 3-4 years since UI changes?

If their products actually make you angry why don't you just use something else? I'll never understand the negativity. If you don't like what they are doing show them with your wallet, its the only way to potentially get Apple to change its course.
Because thousands of DEVELOPERS go to get hands on learning about DEVELPMENT!
sigh. Thank the goddess for the ignore function.

Apple knows what they read here is not real. Your anger is not shared by the average user. Have a nice day.
I am waiting for a portable Mac Mini with 10 hour battery, basically the fastest iMac Pro with USB ports, HDMI, MagSafe, SuperDrive, but no screen or keyboard, controlled wirelessly by low cost iPad or laptop.
I'd like you to have a nice day too! Never said said my anger is shared by the average user. The more mainstream user Tim caters to walks in to an Apple store points to a notebook and says I'll take it. Great! But a significant percentage I would think does not share the same casual purchasing experinece. If you were a CEO, would you think the loss of even 2-3% sales (an example folks) is acceptable? No. Because it's so easy for 2-3% to turn into more. That's where all the bankrupt companies went. Nothing happens overnight but at some point folks will be in a board room and ask "what happened?".
If the new MacMini has a power cord and no internal battery then I’ve lost hope.
Woo hoo!!! New watch bands and emojis!!!!
Too bad I can't buy anything from Apple, been trying to make money using my old trashcan Mac Pro and ancient Mac mini. Not easy to do anymore. Hard to imagine Apple makes it hard to be creative.

Their products don’t make me angry. TC’s way of running the company and their removal of useful features to make the MBP too thin to be reliable do. The keyboard on the MBP is just rubbish.
One reason is because some are proud followers of a company that put out products of a quality that could not be disputed. It makes some unhappy that now many Windows users have a real opportunity to laugh at Apple users. It used to be we could shrug that off as "you just don't get it". Now even hardened Apple users have to say "wait a minute...."
WE DON'T WANT to use something else. But we don't want to be treated as some boardroom joke for a company making gobs of money. A little respect goes a long way for loyalty.
So essentially no new hardware that everyone wants and software bug fixes that should have been corrected in regular updates. This is going to be the best WWDC yet. 
Given that they still sell brand new 2017 iMacs with spinners only (not fusion) I doubt we’ll see Apple going pure ssd this year.
hahahaha. thanks for the chuckle. "tim" as you call him is the CEO of the most successful company in the history of the world. Folks in the board room and stockholders like myself are cheering him on. maybe you should send your resume, just in case. Good luck.
I can't remember the last keynote that wasn't a disappointment in general.
Especially the "hello again" event, that was a huge letdown.
Yes I occasionally try to get Siri to do something like start playing a playlist or responding to a text, and then I'm immediately reminded why I don't use Siri...
Cheap? Upgrading a MBP from 256gig to 1TB is $600 ($800/TB). Upgrading the iMac Pro from 1 to 4TB is $2800 ($933/TB). SSD is expensive. It takes COURAGE to buy SSD if you're a mac user.
Oh, did you mean the SSD the the rest of the world enjoys which is sub-$200/TB for good quality up to about $400/TB for fantastic quality better and faster than Apple? Well that can't possibly any good, it doesn't have Timmy's magic pixie dust in it. /sarcasm

Who cares about new hardware and software? This is WWDC not some cheesy consumer event. It's all about watch bands and animojis. That's what power users and developers want.
I do hope Apple upgrades that old-fashioned useless touch bar on the MBPs to something more modern and useful like physical functions keys though.
And that’s a bad thing? You wanted Apple to continually release new hardware and not fixing buggy software? Seriously?So essentially no new hardware that everyone wants and software bug fixes that should have been corrected in regular updates. This is going to be the best WWDC yet.
Go back to what Steve Jobs said. Apple works like a big startup. This nature allows them to come up with exciting new things, but at the same time can spread things a bit too thin. Now they’re regrouping back to focus on fine tuning the software. To me that’s a good thing. It’s not like there’s huge advances in PC hardware anyway.
The keynotes have been “disappointed” because we had almost everything leaked already, and since nobody can match Jobs in t rms of presentation, they keynotes ended up a bit meh, especially since we already knew the things they were going to announce.
Makes it hard? Please.
Not Apple’s fault on your lack of creativity. Look inward.
Apple has the tools. User ambition is still necessary.
