No, I'm not going to San Francisco. No, I can't meet up with any MLAers unless they are also going. BUT...a guy here, along with someone from Apple is running a presentation on the stuff that was covered in WWDC. I may see a G5 and/or an iSight! Its tomorrow! I'll be sure to tell you guys what happens!

Be sure not to miss any details. Better take a recorder and tape the thing and convert it to MP3 so we can all hear!

iBack. No G5s, but they had some iSights there, and they were demoing them, very cool stuff. They also had 10.3 on an AlBook, so they showed that off...i can't wait to use it. Either way, it was kewl.

I'm still excited, regardless of the fact that I don't own a single Windows PC.

iTunes for Windows = more users of iTunes Music Store
more users of iTMS = more profits for Apple.

Exactly, and then hopefully they can lower the price of OS X, and POSSIBLY EVEN STOP INCLUDING OS 9 WITH IT, THEREFORE DECREASING THE MAMMORTH AU$229 PRICE!!!!!!!!! I've already paid twice for a copy of OS 9. Why should i pay another time for it?

And more profits for Apple = Lower System costs and newer/better hardware...
Which in turn = more sales for Apple, and the cycle repeats!

no, no, that's just what they want you to think. What will really happen is they'll spend the money on producing Apple Cars and then sell them for $438,034.43 each, but this four-cylinder translucent death box on wheels is equiped with a G5 so it's ok....
