I usually enjoy WWDC, but this will even be my first as a Mac owner. Hopefully we will get to see 10.6 as is rumored.

Not sure if the iPhone can win me over still though, but I love gadgets, so it'll be interesting to see. I use my phone for too much and the iPhone just isn't powerful enough for me yet. Hopefully that will change.

They would still sell hardware IMO if they did this. Plus, if they did a partnership with an OEM they could make money off that hardware (Dell, I'm sure, would jump at a chance to sell OS X).

Dell already said they would love to sell computers with OSX..... but I still don't think Apple will do that

looks like a Developers System of some type. with all SDK's etc. lol

Doesn't make much sense though. You can already run OS X, Windows, and Linux on EVERY Intel Mac, and the SDKs and such are free. Then again, I wouldn't put it past Apple to manage to make you think you needed something that you already have, haha.

Forgot to post link/source,

http://www.tuaw.com/2008/06/08/rumor-mac-f...-developer-mac/

On WWDC Eve, we at TUAW are hard at work keeping an eye out for the unknown and unexpected. We just received a tip showing what appears to be the Mac Nano computer that we've all wanted -- and it looks to be aimed towards the developer crowd.

The pictures appear to show a Mac geared towards developers on Windows and Linux systems. "Leave Windows behind. Build your Apps for OS X" states the title. While we are extremely cautious about rumors like these right before WWDC, we did have a rumor that a "new Mac" or at least an updated Mac might be released.

Macfusion could be like those Sony PS3, Xbox etc.. developer kits....special systems for developing games to run on PS3...so this could be an all-in-one kit to help devs design new software for Macs

after all it is a Developer Conference. lol I'm speculating

Maybe the mac fusion could be a slimmed down OSX, more like an SDK kind of thing, on an external hard drive, intended to be booted from. It could also be an uber cheap mac, but that would require developers to change their computer... while a bootable os x could be better.

who knows.

I like fakes :D

    • Hey Google, these are the Gemini features I want in 2026

      I used to use Google assistant, not on the phone i have now, but about 7 years ago, then I decided it did not really do anything for me. Because i had Echo units over the house I added Alexa to the phone to control stuff and that is how it is now. Not the new Alexa+, as that is not really available in the U.K yet apart from on new units and to be honest, not interested in it. I went though the stage years ago of using voice to do text and call people, quicker to do it using my hands. I had a muck about with Siri on my Mac when I first got it, but not having a microphone permanently plugged in makes it a pain. I know it can be used by text. Siri like Apple AI is disabled on my Mac and will stay disabled.
    • It's about to become harder to turn off your Samsung TV, thanks to Instagram

      I have a TV, but it is not used for normal linear TV, only streaming and it is not a Samsung and the best bit is, I don;'t and never have had a Instagram account. The only thing I have to do with Meta is Faceache and I only keep that just for the messaging part.

      But building your own.. what? You can't build anything like the Steam Machine yourself. Even trying to get close costs a good deal more. Even just the CPU cooler in their price comparison is as big as the entire Steam Machine. If you want a regular gaming PC, then by all means, build that. If you want a a small console-like PC for the living room that is good for gaming, I'm not sure what else is a better deal. In the GN review, they only mentioned a small form factor Dell, which is like twice the size and hundreds of dollars more expensive.

      Those are some popular multiplayer games. But hardly "all". Just those that don't work on Linux currently due to specific anti-cheat implementations. I think it's also fair to point out the literally thousands of games that don't work on the PS5. And it's not locked at 1080p. That's the default, which you can change.
