official Apple WWDC 2013 Discussion Thread

I got as far as the fast flash in the new Mac Maxi and had to give up. The stream is freezing up here more than a Fermi card.

I liked what I managed to see of Mavericks. Not so sure about the name change though. Kinda preferred Sea Lion. Good to see iBooks on OS X. Was kinda stupid that you could buy a book on a Mac but not view it.

iOS is coming........

I loved the OS X guy.. He is the new Jobs!! He was on fire!!

Also loved Schiller saying "Can't innovate any more my ass"

I don't like the name Mavericks. I would almost be ok if it was just Maverick

iWork online is pretty awesome.

Agreed, iBooks, much like correcting the full screen issue, should have been fixed a while ago.

Did they say if iBooks is part of Mavericks or if it'll be a download for previous systems? I'm thinking it might be the latter as it's a store. Be nice if I can install it on my MacBook (10.6.8) as that's where I do all my buying in iTunes.

The mock up was spot on.

The homepage with the icons i dont like, the rest looks nice.

About the dots. The icons still look better than the mockup that hit the front page.

Also missed animation and parallax scrolling and transparency, obviously.

Ok, Apple has me stumped. I'm confused how the "stunning" and "new" UI is "stunning" and "new"... :/

The paralax thing look pretty cool, can't wait to actually try it

[Dot Matrix]

Apple just validated Windows Phone's design, and competitiveness. :laugh:

[Lamp0]

I think it looks fantastic.

[V-Tech]

Control Centre - Already on android

Swipe from left to right in messages and emails - Already on android

This looks 0% like a Windows phone.

[0sit0]

what were they thinking. those icons looks horrible and cheap. Windows 8 Phone is looking pretty good for me right now lol

[V-Tech]

Safari full screen - Already on Android with the latest Chrome update

Safari new tabs - Looks like android

[tsupersonic]

Wow, control center is a major rip on Android's quick settings, just like the notification center was. Nice job Apple.

[Dot Matrix]

iOS 7 looks pretty unrefined and fairly inconsistent.

[matt4pack]

It looks like it was designed for preschool kids.

[Jason S. Global Moderator]

anyone else find it a tad bit annoying they called the intel xeon chip on the mac pro a "256-bit Intel Xeon" chip?....... if you know the internals of all the Intel CPU's you know where they got this number from but it's not what they are insinuating....

i cant figure it out. anyone care to enlighten me on Apple's futuristic processor?

Gone is steve jobs obsession with tweaking until it reaches his ideal of "perfect" before it sees the light of day.

iOS 7, brought to you by Lisa Frank.

[Rudy]

Automatic updates from the appstore better have a way for developers to pull updates if there's a problem with them (happens way too often)

[threetonesun]

It's a 64 bit processor with a 256 bit memory architecture, which has been the case with Xeon's for a while now.

Clearly you never saw the first iPhone. :laugh:

[protocol7]

Hmm apps on iOS7 automatically update now. Hope that can be turned off. Some updates aren't always for the best.
