[Official] Apple WWDC 2011 Keynote


Recommended Posts

I'm sure the dmg will be in the download file somewhere. Hasn't that been the case in the dev previews?

I believe so, yes, but it wasn't like you were simply downloading a disk image. You had to open the file you download and extract the disk image. It was a fair bit of work, something that I don't see the average Mac user doing.

I think the benefits of digital distribution far outweigh the negatives, but there are still times when using a physical install medium is the ideal way to go.

diskless os installs... eh i'm disappointed in that, because your HD can fail and then how do you reinstall an OS on a blank drive? and don't give me the obvious apple answer "go to the apple store genius" stuff... I'm talking about large companies here...

i want expose in iOS. android has it...

I want multitasking like WP7. Double-tap on the home button would take you to a screen similar to iOS Safari tabs.

I'm sure Apple will have an alternative way. After all, you can't do NetInstall with MAS images. You could upgrade one Mac, image it, and to NetBoot/NetRestore with that, but it seems clunky.

Looks like the rumors are true about what the notification sytem was going to look like. It's just like Androids and I like it.

hmm meh, maybe ill like it more when i see it in motion and use it... but really, i think they should have put it in the space above the multitasking bar

just to use the wasted space (as well as save us from a bit of noise from the fandroids :p)

now they are showing full tabbed browsing in iOS,

another thing I find ironic, going backwards as far as tabbed browsing I feel

For so long I had wondered why browsers didn't have tabs like this originally, and it made sense because of the whole touch aspects

All looks very similar, I don't massively like the look of the new mail app at all, seems too much like a tablet app rather than one designed for people with 1000s of mails, it would take a long time to go through it with that view, nor do I like the fact it won't be available on DVD, even if it was ?10 more on DVD it'd at least provide an option: and finally, this obsession with the cloud and streaming frankly scares me, I want hard copies of my files that aren't online thanks

Really nothing special with the keynote so far, maybe it's just I was expecting Apple to at least catch up with the competition :/

anyone else notice that's not an iphone 4 they are showing everything on?

It is an iPhone 4, just they've changed the icons.

well, don't know, most of the third party browsers i've ignored as they just feel like a desktop browser on the ipad, not a browser build of the ipad (using sleipnir right now, pretty awesome) but if it solves safaris problem of having only 9 tabs ill gladly use the tabs and safari

edit: wow the dictionary feature looks awesome!

split keyboard, looking nice, looks like MS wasn't alone with that idea :p

yeah it is. angry net guy. Talkin about "OMG LION is gonna be so cheap".

yeah of course it is. after you pay $1000+ for the hardware to run it on.

Stop being so angry, its life.

i'm just waiting for my ios 5 :p

good thing i paid 1000+ for a over priced 13.3 laptop :rolleyes:

    • UK funds £60M AI labs to challenge US tech dominance with open-source models by Paul Hill The UK government has awarded £60 million to Oxford University and University College London to help keep the country in the AI race by focusing on open-source, low-hardware alternatives. This is in stark contrast to the expensive, closed-source, and high-hardware-requirement models being created in the United States and elsewhere. The money will be shared among two new academic research labs over six years to help them redesign the fundamental mathematics and architectures of AI to help the UK reduce its reliance on a handful of US tech firms. Commenting on the development, AI Minister Kanishka Narayan said: Initially, the government planned to fund just one lab with a £40 million investment, but with this update, two labs will now get access to a larger pool of funds. The labs are expected to invest in the top AI researchers at every career stage, with £2 million per lab being set aside for hiring at least ten doctoral students. The government hopes that this will grow the UK’s talent in the field of AI. The labs are also expected to work closely with the leaders in British AI research, such as the Alan Turing Institute and UKRI’s AI research hubs. This will allow the various teams to collaborate and create new solutions faster than they could alone. This development is pretty interesting for a number of reasons, chiefly that it could create a long-term challenge for US tech firms if these labs successfully scale these open-source architectures that bypass the proprietary ecosystems. It could also give British businesses and public sector organizations access to AI features without paying high licensing fees to foreign providers or needing to invest in specialized server infrastructure.
    • If I were them, I'm gonna hold out until the prices of these semiconductor parts normalize. $1,049 for a ~5 year old hardware is DoA, more so for gamers. On a deeper note, if Steam Machine is priced like this, we are soo effed up for the next gen Xbox console and PS6. With great AAA titles releasing at the end of the year, this just creates more demand...and more tears for me. Lol.
    • I suspect one reason its hard to justify subsidising is that it's not a locked down device like a traditional console is. In this climate sadly if it was a "good deal" you'd get people hoarding them for anything but gaming. The Lenovo Legion Go 2 with the Ryzen Z2 Extreme is £1300 here ($1720) for some context on how other SteamOS like devices are now priced. I got the older Z1 Extreme model for £300 with a dock, just shows how insane prices have got recently.
