    • breakerjump, on 01/14/2008, -7/+22A Mac-only game that windows 'kids' would die for is called "Getting ***** Done". Another one I like is "Earning a Living".

  • Greer70, on 01/14/2008, -9/+1It's new Mac Air. It's better than Windows Air because you can breathe it, and not breathe Windows Air, or you can breather Windows Air with your Mac Air! See, that's what makes it better!!!

  • Sophistifunk, on 01/14/2008, -5/+1Apple Integrated Runtimes... Look through your Windows(tm) and see the Air(tm)... Built in VMWare?
  • onlyclave, on 01/14/2008, -4/+7Let me tell you a quick Microsoft story then you can digg me down:

    Up until about a year and a half ago Microsoft was working with Walmart on a wireless movie download service since something like 75% of te population lives within 50 miles (some kind of statistic like that) that posted the Wifi movie transmitters in/on the Walmart building and then MS kicked dowm some money to WM for every movie someone downloaded through this service. For some reason it was canned but it was very close to becoming a reality. The NDAs are now all lifted and you might find some word about this on the internets. As I live 5 miles away from the Microsoft campus it's pretty easy to find people who work there that like to brag about their jobs.

    Since Apple is hanging these "Something's in the air" banners and they own iTunes and there is a Starbucks within 25 feet of 90% of the population....


    Nah. Probably just a larger iPhone.
  • ProAm500, on 01/14/2008, -0/+2no, no, no....

    we all know its the Giant Snake woman from "The Golden Child"
  • LennyX, on 01/14/2008, -2/+4Am I the only one that thinks this whole 'There's something in the air' thing is about Apple been greener & reducing carbon emissions and the like?
    Makes sense to me.
  • starlord1, on 01/14/2008, -2/+1Come on it's obviously an Apple Plane, the iPlane the centre of your digital travel system ?
  • InsMan, on 01/14/2008, -0/+2I will make a prediction - I bet that something in the air has something to due with Itunes or Ipod content being available on certain airlines - anyone agree?
    • herbstblatt, on 01/14/2008, -0/+0Well, I am more on the "MacBook Air" rumor side. Your guess seems quite reasonable as well, though...
  • definetheline, on 01/15/2008, -0/+2Hey, there is going to be live vieo coverage of the keynote at

    http://cunning.tv
  • Legolover64, on 01/15/2008, -0/+2A HUGE thing that we should look at when seeing that garageband shot is the small resolution.

    ultraportable?
