I'm looking to buy a new mb too, but I'm not too worried about the hardware upgrades, that's a given now that the white is claimed edge out the 2.0 unibody. They'll certainly have to do something about that. As for snow leopard, it would help apple if they can get it out before the back to school surge (june 19?) Then every freshman in town would have a shiny new apple months before windows 7 hits the shelves and they'll tell their buddies to buy it. What I really want to see is them putting the battery technology from the 17" into the 13s and 15s. Then I'll buy. a mb with 10 hours of life? Just imagine.
Actually, doing that foretells the exact date of each iPhone launch divided by the week number of the Panther OS launch - however, that is only if you include the average number of security patches in the 3rd week of every August - which is exactly why the Quicktime icon is silver, thusly signaling the anniversary of an event that led to the birth of Steve.
Well a happy B-day to you as well there MedHead!
How many are b-day peeps today?
so far +2
Make us happy
need some new stuff.I'm guessing that's Objective-C's Garbage Collection
JUST IN
Is this a new dashboard icon on the left hand side of the banner?
EDIT: My bad, other left.
EDIT 2: Better pic - Kudos gdgt
EDIT 3: Icon on left is Grand Central (the traffic light)
It also looks like the Time Machine icon has changed to silver. It's on the far bottom right.
Old Time Machine icon:
thats the iSync app

What do I have to gain by lying on an internet forum??
Looks like movie film to me in the trash. Probably new Quicktime associated files icons.
I agree. I don't understand why it would be difficult to do this Marble user interface. Just slap it in Apple.
I actually have done that. I just don't want to spoil the surprises for the rest of you.
That's what comes from reading rumors for months. Read enough speculation and you'll eventually hear people predicting everything under the sun, and then, when something realistic happens, it can't compare. Well, that and people like to whine on the internet.
p.s. - you're all really going to enjoy June 14, 2013.
You are 100% correct, sir. In about 3 hours, we will be swamped by people bitching and moaning. However, until then, we must hype this to no end.
That's the icon for the garbage collector (cf. the GC inspectors in Instruments (and I'm sure the pages around developer.apple.com)) which is supposed to have had a serious rewrite to support Grand Central Dispatch (cf. http://www.opensource.apple.com/source/autozone/autozone-77.1/README.html?f=text).
iPhone with video calls... Schiller calls up Jobs
It was usually so that Jobs called Schiller (eg. on iChat), so i guess that this time it's gonna be the other way round. I think that's a perfect way to showcase the video conferencing on the iPhone with built in iSight camera.

maybe the date on the banner is the iPhone release date. I would kinda expect Apple to release Snow Leopard maybe after October 26th, to make 10.5 Leopard more than two years old.
I'm betting the overlap is caused by the banner designer randomly tossing the icons about to make it look like they "exploded" out from the center. Some of these are bound to overlap.
Sorry to be a killjoy.

Woo! I told my teacher I had to leave school early... but secretly it was for this!
Stoked, can't wait. I thought I heard of an audio stream? Is that true?
THIS IS GOING TO BE AWESOME.
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.
Nailed it.
Maybe not on an iPhone, but if Shiller phoned Jobs, can you imagine a) the applause, and b) the overwhelmingly positive effect on Apple stock price?
If you're planning on buying some Apple stock, do it within the next 50 mins!
What's the icon in the bottom right?
What's the green spherical logo on the left (it's also on the right but in purple)??
