Re: Official MacWorld Keynote Coverage Thread (1-15-08)
Less than two hours to go. Here are pics of the early morning queue from TUAW:
The Keynote Line - The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)
And here's Fake Steve's typically hilarious take on it:
The Secret Diary of Steve Jobs: The madness begins
"Nice hair, Morrissey."
One of these years I've gotta go to Macworld...
Oh yeah, the online Apple Store is already down.

Re: Official MacWorld Keynote Coverage Thread (1-15-08)
You know, a year ago I wouldn't have given a shit
about a MacWorld Keynote address. Today I am like
a giddy school kid sitting and awaiting Steve Jobs to
take the podium.
Over the course of this year I have become
such a Mac nerd that it's not even funny. Since January
'07 I bought a Mac Pro, Macbook Pro, iPod and iPhone.
I converted no less than 4 co-workers to Mac recently
and all of them have been thankful.
...and despite the fact some people find the need to say I "drank
the Kool-aid," I have never been more confident about anything
than my stand on never going back to a PC!

I have always liked Mac Rumors' coverage if you can't view a live video feed and this year they have a special iPhone page setup.

Except that Apple doesn't do a live feed. Their video won't be available until this afternoon.

Agreed, as they do the auto-update thing. No mashing on the refresh button!

Re: Official MacWorld Keynote Coverage Thread (1-15-08)
First new product announce: Time Capsule - an Airport Extreme/hard drive combo. Basically an Apple NAS for Time Machine. I don't think any of the rumor mills got this.
$300 for 500 GB, $500 for a terabyte. I'm buying one of these!
