Yes, that's a stretchy as silly putty.
Valve is not attending E3, so I had a momentary lapse of sanity where I envisioned that Steve Jobs would announce that they were going to get "serious" about gaming on the mac, release a $1499 xMac with a powerful, expandable GPU, new OS X game development tools, and something that can compete with DirectX.
Valve would then demonstrate Half-Life 3 on the Mac for the very first time.
Then I came back to reality.

Well said. My guess is that someone is a bit premmie if you ask me.

What I probably (will) care about is something that I still don't know that I care about but will care about in 2 hours ....
Even if I used Twitter, (which I don't) I wouldn't want integrated into my OS; I'm hoping they'll be an option to turn it off / install the iOS without twitter integration / a app, which can change to OS, like you download iBooks, only if you want it.

Lion will be the same buggy piece of crap that every ".0" OS X software has been. The early adopter fanboys will rave and the rest us will have to wait for the inevitable patch that should have been part of the QA process. iCloud will be great alternative backup but foregoing local content in favor of streaming? You've got to be kidding! Smart phones can't even make a decent phone call and the wireless companies are salivating at the thought of an order of magnitude increase in billable data throughput. Although I am an exclusive Mac and Apple user I am actively searching for the company that will take Apple's old title of upstart and challenger of the status quo. Apple has become the pariah that MS was.

OMFG!!! Enough already! Engadget IS NOT streaming the Keynote!
It's a typical bait-n-switch to get hits on their site. They streamed a dumbass video of two ****s waiting in line to get in the building.
I'm amazed at how dense the Apple population is at times. Really.

Same as with any MS ".0" version (remember: don't install any MS product until SP1 is released).
Unfortunately that is true for a lot of software (from a lot of companies) these days ... but yes, the 'fans' (no matter from with company) see the potential and are patient enough until the initial problems are fixed.
I loled at this. It IS the typical reply!
I'm excited for Lion's OpenGL 3.2 support since not only does that mean I can start learning OpenGL 3.2, but according to threads and replies to those threads by Jack Greasley, a Mari version of Mac OS is built but waiting on OpenGL 3 support....hm....
