New Iphone!
-
Apple makes a phone?
-
Hopefully new MacBook Pro's
-
SDK+Rock band. only apple could pull that off
-
I am sick of this secret crap. Just announce the event as soon as the secret is out of the bag.
-
TV production, band, SDK!!! Well this must be more than a simple SDK, hopefully MacBook Pro...
-
god, but the band didn't even capitalize "apple". lame, i have a feeling this is just another Tiny Code situtation. http://macenstein.com/default/archives/1148
However, next event: MB updates, SDK with distribution through iTunes Store, AAPL adding games and voice recording to the event. Seems too that there's something bigger in the pipeline, something people haven't gotten ahold of yet. There's not enough going on in the rumor mill about a particular product and AAPL has been quietly updating their main handhelds. -
Linkin Park!? Are you sure this isn't a Microsoft event? Sheesh, what happened to Steve's taste!
-
SDK + Flash!
-
YES!!!! I was already excited about the SDK! Now I get Linkin Park too!!!!!! XD Side note: If the 26th event was true, Apple would have sent invitations already. Since they haven't, I'm 99% sure that 26th rumor is as non-existant as your god.

Could it get any better? Linkin Park and the hope of a new Macbook Pro that I've been wanting? Ya ya, digg me down, LP is my favorite band so I don't care.
-
Wow who cares?
-
linkin park blows
-
Well actually its not that linkin park is performing, the real news is that an event is coming up and that pumps up apple shares. Right now apple is almost 40% of its current high and ANY news is GOOD news...
-
New mac mini? Or perhaps a smaller consumer-sized MacPro? I can dream......
*crosses fingers* -
Apple's influence over their fanboys is strong enough to convince them that Linkin Park isn't a super crappy whiny emo band? I'm impressed!
-
I've become so numb
I can't feel you there
Become so tired
So much more aware
I'm becoming this
All I want to do
Is be more like me
And be less like you -
I hope it's so secret that I don't have to listen to Linkin Park.
-
Hybrid Theory was such a kickass album
-
linkin park & apple - two groups who just make tiny changes to what they already offer.
-
What's that? Oh, Linkin Park is the 2nd most popular band in the world after U2? Huh, well according to these haters that's not true.
Oh, it IS true? Hmm, then perhaps these haters are just dumbass whiners?
They ARE? Hmm... -
Apple - Now introducing the Slimmer Macbook Air Nano and the all new Macbook Water.
-
Where's my macbook!!!!!???? Eh? Eh?
-
Stinkin' Park.... That ish is HOT GARBAGE!
-
Linkin Park and Apple.
Two things that suck out loud but are popular because of pretentious douches in black turtle necks who NONE OF US WILL EVER UNDERSTAND QQ -
they need to get Daft Punk.
-
I really hope that Apple allows itunes to distribute content from anyone, even free apps and stuff. Would make the iphone a great open dev community. I mean why alienate all those hackers that make such good programs?
-
Imagine if you had to be stuck on an island with a linkin park album, a nickleback album or a sum 41 album which would you pick. I would shoot myself.
-
MacBook
-
Why would apple have a douchebag band like Linkin Park represent them. Why not show dominance and have a band like Slayer.
-
I predict Apple starting their record label, and signing LP to it, among others.
-
"Apple has enlisted the services of popular alternative rock band Linkin Park "
Popular WHAT rock band? Linkin Park is supposed to be alternative? Sorry, the final nail in the coffin was nailed on April 5, 1994 -
why not yael naim, the artist from the macbook air commercial. or CSS from the touch commercial. Linkin park is so wack its ***** incredible. Thats ***** that kids who wear that hat backwards with the bottom part over their eyebrows(ex: fred durst) listen to. while they ride their bmx bikes down to the piggly wiggly to get a ***** can of mountain dew. I thought apple could do better than this. they're ***** apple.
-
LINKIN PARK IS ***** GAY /endcaps
-
If it's Linkin Park I'm going to guess it's something of equal value, like an iPod Hi-fi 2.
-
EEEEEEEEEEEEEMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMOOOooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Suck on suck if you ask me.
-
Linkin Park? Seriously? LAAAAME.
-
It could be worse. Fall out Boy... 0_0 (vomiting sounds). No, you stay away from my wrist with that razor and that teenage angst!
-
New iPod "music that sucks" special edition.
-
Linkin Park have a career still? I thought they would have faded away with the rest of the nu-metal acts.
-
I'd certainly laugh if it was a Linkin Park themed iPod similar to the U2 limited edition. Just less awesome, but was the U2 edition even great in the first place?
-
Linkin Park is one of the most awful bands. Ever.
-
Thanks Apple! Now I know I won't regret missing it.
-
Something weird is going on. The Counting Crows are also scheduled to be touring apple stores in may...
-
I'd like to see an iMac update (newer videocard + Penryn). But this is probably the iPhone SDK and Macbook Pro.
-
Apple should tap SLAYER, because Kerry King shopped at an Apple Store.
Apple should also tap Bad Religion, just because they are so awesome! -
Simian Mobile Disco performed at an apple store once and it was great. It actually makes sense since they use Mac laptops in their shows, unlike Linkin Park. They should have SMD to play again
-
Linkin Park.... weak.
