Macworld 2006 Discussion


Recommended Posts

Well actually I think the white craze started with the Snowflake coloured edition of the iMac G3 which looked like a slot loading eMac basically. That and the iBook G3 which was out during the iMac G3's which were other colours. I do believe it was the iMac G4 though was the machine that kind of cemented the whole colour scheme...

Just wish we could watch the event live - I do enjoy watching the keynote presentation by old Steve Jobs - especially when he talks to people on iChat, etc - he's always so natural, funny and always makes a great host for these presentations. Him getting his photo's done on Photobooth was hilarious.

Fingers crossed for Intel Macs... might be seriously looking at a Mini in a few months so it'd be cool if they revised them and beefed them up a bit!

omg reading this thread has made me not be able to wait even more i was so waitng for intel macs that i completly forgot iLife'06 with Front Row is coming out i hope it has loads more features than it does now. and a look at finder in 10.5 would be great too :)

And um maybe we will get iTunes 7 with Video streaming support

iTune 7 would include Video Podcast...

iLife06 with FrontRow, PhotoBooth, Video Podcast Creator, ....

Mabe iWorks 2.0 ??

iBook with Intel CPU, available NOW.

Mac Mini with Intel CPU, available in march-april 2006.

Preview of a PowerBook with Intel CPU, available in late 2006.

Lots of talk about the Dual Core, Dual CPU PPC PowerMac, with benchmark....

Lots of talk about XCode, creating apps for Intel and PPC Mac.

Updated iPod Shuffle

Small preview of OS X 10.5

I finish work at 5pm.. doh! Might either stay behind and watch the reports come in, or drive home like my trousers are on fire so I can catch up!

Wish they'd stream the keynote live! I love watching Jobs do his presentations! His enthusiasm for the products and the genuine interest in it always makes it so worthwhile!

    • Yup, broke my comp… again. its times like this when I regret AMD. This just never happens on NV.
    • Huh? You're delusional calling the Steam Deck dead. It is so successful that it has sold out multiple times. Even after the price hike this year it sold out again with 24 hours of being back in stock. The demand is real and has not died down even after four years.
