WWDC Keynote Starting Soon, Grand Central Banners

A note to everyone asking these questions: What are you, daft? This is a developer's conference. For people who claim to be experts on everything mac, you obviously haven't installed the xcode tools or ever so much as thought the letters API. That is the "core" logo. As in Core Image, Core Animation, etc. The icons that people say look like appleworks are things in the xcode tools.

Not everyone is a developer there and neither are all the people on MR. I'm just an enthousiast and like to know more about the upcoming release of snow leopard and the iphone. Mainly the stuff consumers will eventually end up using and not how to produce thowse things using dev tools.

Apparently the fact that you have installed the xcode tools makes you feel superior to other people here, that's sad man, really sad...

Leaving school to sit in front of a computer hitting refresh on a website for text info that will readily be available when you get home, probably in glorious HD video, without any server overload issues?

No offence, but that's got to be the dumbest excuse for bunking off I've heard in a long time.

Are you planning on buying anything straight away on the very off chance that Apple actually produce something new to sell today? If not, then missing out on education for this is ridiculous.

Most people here are either stuck at work (like me) or at home already having finished their working day.

As much as I loathe the site, could you not just have had Twitter message you in school? Seems ideal for this sort of purpose.

Stop talking about things you have no idea of. It was last class, a useless class that most people are skipping because it's pointless and near the end of the year.

Seriously, I just want the live feed. Do you feel cool lecturing people on the internet? Let us enjoy the event without e-thugs trying to act tough and discipline people.

Really, it's a fun event. Just enjoy it like I will be. :)

Except that I believe their replacement policy would allow recent purchasers to exchange the product.

Yeah, but they bank on the fact that the majority of people don't know about that policy - or aren't in on the tech world enough to care
 
Should we be expecting any surprises? I don't even know! Haha, can't wait though... I hope they do everything right this time. ;)
 
that live feed aint the best and prob wont last long.. will there be a better feed on here or anything?

This is literally not the forum for that. Certainly there are more things important in life than Apple events. We are all here because we are enthusiasts. No harm in enjoying one's interests.

I know actually. I felt I needed to post some real-world matters to balance all the giddy schoolgirl posts in here.

Didn't think anyone would actually notice it in the fan storm... ;)

Not trying to be a nay-sayer, just being somewhat bold (against prevailing opinion/rumor). My predictions for WWDC:

1.) Apple will review the last year's accomplishments.
2.) Apple will discuss Snow Leopard.
3.) Apple will discuss the iPhone 3.0 OS and give a few demos of same.
4.) Apple will announce and demo some new iTunes App Store features.
5.) That is all folks...

Thus, there will be no introduction or demo of new hardware. No intro or demo of the 3rd generation iPhone (that will have to wait until Steve Jobs makes his return in another month or so). No new iPod touch (that will likely be seen this fall). No new Macs. No new Apple TV. And certainly no totally new products (tablet, netbook, etc.).

However, Apple will likely do some modest feature or price updates on the unibody MacBooks. Whether this happens today, or tomorrow, or sometime in the next few weeks I'm not certain.

Why the heck is the store down then?
 
LOL, 10,500 active users... :D

I'm excited too. 64-bit is good...*cough*Adobe Photoshop for Mac*cough*...

After the keynote, the laymen will demand developers make applications 64-bit compliant; use Grand Central, OpenCL, etc.

I've already seen an arrogant disposition in an open source community forum by one individual who demanded the project incorporate OpenCL. He was absolutely adamant that the speed increases would be dramatic, despite tests which showed otherwise. It was quite shocking, to say the least. His attitude displayed arrogance, but he did not seem like a troll.

I was reminded of the demands for a Cocoa-based Finder and the attacks against Adobe for not porting their suite to Cocoa.

I think they will want to respond to the Pre sooner then later...
 
Really?

Wow, I think its great that people are so excited about new Apple products, but analyzing the icons in Apple's banners? Not even I am that geeky.
 
Apple To spin off computer division.

Apple will be spinning off the computer divison into a new company
called NeXT Computer Inc. This transition will allow Apple Inc. to
concentrate on consumer electronics. The spinoff which will be named
NeXT Computers Inc will be selling the existing line up of desktops
and laptops, they will sport a new black color across the board, the
Mac Pro for example will be black anodized aluminum and will sport a
NeXT logo on the panels in the shape of a isometric cube. Owners of
AAPL stock will receive 1.5 shares of NEXI(new ticker symbol) for
every share of AAPL held. Rumor has it that Ross Perot is interested
in buying a large number of shares in the new NeXT Computer Inc.
