was it my imagination, or did [the Leopard demo] look a little thin today. :D

MBHockey 08-07-2006 09:26 PM

i noticed that also.

I think it's the first time that we have the concurrence of the presentation of a new OS X while MS is in the middle of developing a competing OS. I would have been cautious too.

Its the World Wide Developers conference anyway, they got the Mac Pro and Core Animation, as well as the excitement of leopard preview (+ copy for themselves) to keep them ticking over.

Y'know the leopard preview is just to make microsoft **** themselves even more, and for the apple loving consumers to be happy to wait till MW '07 for more dirt on leopard.

Ignore the rumour hype (or take it with a pinch of salt) and its been a very fine and exciting WWDC Keynote, with more coming during the week apparently!

Yea, exactly. It's a developer conference. Analysts were disappointed in Apple because they didn't release a new gadget and their stock has been going down since.

Don't those analysts realize this isn't the place to introduce a Mac mini that does TiVo?

I think you're right, he looked rather thin, and not in the healthy sense. Anyone have any idea if he's alright?

On IRC, I saw one person ask if there was still hope for another keynote at the WWDC were they might annouce a new iPod. :confused:

MBHockey 08-08-2006 11:00 PM

I don't believe so...

I don't think even the original iPod was announced at any of these big shows. Wasn't it a "special event?"
