Steve Jobs Action Figure - Quickdood, on 10/10/2007, -8/+63Looks like those iMac rumors were right on the money!
- mkgm1, on 10/10/2007, -4/+51"Mac products only"..so presumably no iPods.
- bSimms, on 10/10/2007, -5/+43yes, since the invitation clearly stated "new brushed aluminum imacs are going to be announced, as well as a new slim keyboard modeled after our macbook keyboards. oh and we are changing the layout on the keyboard too. so stop on by!"
- Albanian4Life, on 09/07/2009, -3/+41STOP wishing for an Macbook Pro update when they just got updated about 7 weeks ago!!!
- undersky, on 10/10/2007, -1/+39wow...an article that can use the word "Confirmed" in its title correctly yet does not actually use it....
- djpants428, on 10/10/2007, -4/+41"Why not be clearer"
You're right, I totally thought that it was not for 8/7, next tuesday, but rather 8/7 the 8th of july... I was wondering how they managed to make Time Machine actually work so they hold an event in the past.. Pretty sure this means the new imacs will require 1.21 jiggawatts of power to operate.. - Shorties, on 10/10/2007, -7/+43I ordered my Macbook Pro over a week ago and they say they wont ship it until Aug 6th, so my guess is that there will be an iLife announcement along with the new iMacs and thats what my mac is waiting on.
- jandsroberts, on 10/10/2007, -8/+43In America, it's 8/7
Anyway, I've been holding off on a Mac purchase, so I hope it's something good! - zioxide, on 10/10/2007, -0/+24New iMacs.
- boyasunder, on 10/10/2007, -1/+24Wait, I'm confused, where are the comments bitching that they couldn't possibly care about Apple and therefore no one should have dugg this story?
I mean, that's like required in the Digg Constitution, isn't it? - jandsroberts, on 10/10/2007, -3/+26Maybe not, but this event IS in America
- spiffyfitz, on 10/10/2007, -3/+21I'll sit here and hold my breath for a Mac Pro refresh... sigh...
- meatmcguffin, on 10/10/2007, -11/+28Going mm / dd / yyy is a stupid date format; There's a lot more logic in using purely big or litte-endian rather than a mix.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Date_and_time_notation_by_country - KyleMistry, on 10/10/2007, -1/+17Now with sound effects!
"Boom!"
"One more thing!" - nhinsch, on 10/10/2007, -0/+15RTFA! It says that there will be ZERO iPhone and iPod-related announcements. This is a MAC event.
- zioxide, on 10/10/2007, -0/+11None of that is going to happen. The MBP was just updated less than 2 months ago and it currently has top of the line parts. There's nothing to update it too.
iPods are always released in the fall after the back-to-school deal. - Shorties, on 10/10/2007, -1/+12If you read the article # 2 and 3 are out of the question. But you missed possible new iLife and maybe new iWork.
- Sprules04, on 10/10/2007, -1/+12I think he means that if Apple happens to launch new Macs next tuesday then it is a little awkward because it's two month before the release of leopard. So if you buy one these new macs next week then you have to buy Leopard in October, unless Apple gives you a certificate or something to get Leopard for free in October.
- Ireland, on 10/10/2007, -0/+11How'd you guess?
- meatmcguffin, on 10/10/2007, -6/+16And a Brit invented the web.
- bSimms, on 10/10/2007, -3/+13read the article, it says theres no chance of it being iphone related
but otherwise, I'd say imacs and ipods are at the top, yes. - crazybrit, on 10/10/2007, -1/+11I hope you stub your toe really hard.
- Mikey9oo, on 10/10/2007, -1/+11I am excited. I don't understand the "i'm waiting for a Mac Pro refresh" comment. WTF? The Mac pro casing is fine, great in fact.....they just upgraded to Octocore processors a couple months ago. What are you waiting for??? That comment is just dumb.
I am excited to see what they have done with the iMac...I think it is pretty much a given. And, I want that new keyboard for my Mac Pro. - billymonster, on 10/10/2007, -1/+11how about you hit your submit comment button once, or not at all.
- Matrix_Prime, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9WOOHOO! About time. Now I can get my first Mac. Goodbye Windows!
On a related note...do local Apple stores have products the day they are announced? Can I just walk into my local Apple store (which is brand new, never been there myself yet), and purchase one, or do they get their stock sometime after the announcement? - Shorties, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9That patch already came out: http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/31/apple-iphone-update-1-0-1-released/
- roberto_deneero, on 10/10/2007, -1/+9Congrats on your first Mac. Welcome to the family. 8)
- MixedSpleens, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8I highly doubt that Apple gives a flying fruit about DX10.
- ttamshadbolt, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8Wouldn't be called the iPhone... Cisco own that trademark.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+9If they release a new MacBook, I'm going to be so god damn pissed off.
- etandrib, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8They were waiting for you to purchase before announcing. You can take it back within 14 days if you want.…
- billymonster, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8how about you present your macbook to the geniuses at the apple store, as per your year warranty, instead of e-whinning about it
- bastian89, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7Are you kidding?
- nhinsch, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7It depends on the specific product. It could be anywhere from a day to a couple weeks. Steve will most likely say during his presentation when each product will ship.
- mozzep, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8nah, they'll release iPhone 2
- Chewie67, on 10/10/2007, -9/+16Wrong. Al Gore invented the Internet.
- macxprt, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8The way i tell if Apple is coming out with new or upgraded hardware is to check if Leo Laporte just bought one. If so, new products coming down the pike, baby!!
- patrickloggins, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7I'm glad they actually are keeping up with the Mac crowd after the whole pushing Leopard back for the iPhone thing. Obviously, they were right in needing to push the iPhone up (look at their sales), so it's great that the Mac has its own event here.
I wonder if they'll ever change the iMac name to just Mac. It would adhere to their naming system, but they always say stuff like "Choose your Mac", and having a "Mac" product in the choices is kind of confusing. I personally like the iMac name. - wonderchemist, on 10/10/2007, -5/+11Figures, I just got a new Mac...
- crazybrit, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7It's been too long since the last update, so I'm guessing there'll be a new iMac. And possibly a new iLife, but that might have to wait until Leopard.
- crazybrit, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6Redesigned iMac. It has to be.
Still though, I kind of want a Macbook. Stupid decisions. - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6If Sony and LG produced better, more exciting products (and less root kits) perhaps more people would get excited about them.
- Ireland, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6Yeah before all the people come up with their crazy predictions, I'm sticking with the iMac thing.
- Bilbobaggins, on 10/10/2007, -3/+8I think there will definitely be new iMacs. Maybe a new Mac Mini? I just got my iMac in May, so it'll be cool to see the new design and wish I had waited for it.
- SoBayJake, on 10/10/2007, -2/+7MacBook Pros have had a 7-10 business day shipping time for a while now. I ordered on the 18th, and mine shipped on the 31st, which is 9 days.
I doubt Apple would hold up sending off a computer to save a person from buying iLife. They'd rather get it out the door, charge your card, and either offer it to you for a small fee, or have you buy it for the full price. - tidu, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5I ordered one too, july 27th. just my luck if something is improved the day after I get my laptop.
- udahlen, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Of course the will be no MacBook Pro updates. It was just updated. Regarding iPods: probably not, since the invitation said "Mac related", but not out of the question. My guess would be new iMacs.
- zwei, on 10/10/2007, -7/+11I got a 24" iMac 10 months ago. I have 3 or so years left before I get a new one again. I am happy that they waited this long before redesigning it ...but they didn't have to choose my birthday as the day they will make my system obsolete! :(
