Mac, BOOM

caM, MOOB

[GSTWOSEF]

Excited and Nervous

I don't know what to expect, but I know that there is an upgrade
for Macbooks called the Macbook Air. Can't Wait

[Lee in San Diego]

Gizmodo is there!

Will they act like grownups at this show?

[lalitbs]

i am waiting for macbook air, there is one more website doing
coverage www.live.techztalk.com

[mcharge]

How long between updates?

How long between updates? Im in here from Australia, i hope i have got the right time.

[Tom Krazit]

A couple of minutes

Hang in there folks, we're still waiting for everything to begin. That Feist iPod song is on now.

[DrHokis]

MACBOOK price drop!?

when they announce the new sub-notebook today...how long do you guys think before the macbook drops in price?

I NEED ONE ASAP! but i wouldnt mind a couple hundred off

[GSTWOSEF]

Price Drop?!

OMG, is there a macbook that will end up very cheaper to pay.
Interesting.

[cjsmalls]

Store

It's already being updated... the store that is.

[mcharge]

I Don't Follow You...

Sorry you mean the iTunes store? Im not following you.

[KCL]

Correction to Time Machine comment...

It doesn't work over *any* network. Only when wired directly to
your mac, which indeed, did suck.

[ralfthedog]

So I will not be able to use the hard drive...

So I will not be able to use the hard drive I have connected to my Airport Extreme to back up my laptop? The last think I need to do is buy yet another router. I hate having to connect to an external hard drive to backup.

I was hoping that Apple would fix this.

I know that we have workarounds. They are just something of a pain.

[mcharge]

404!

Aagh, i cant see the page! On any of the links!

[KCL]

Hah! CNET Live Blog bites the big one. Nice.

Change to XServes and keep your jobs!

[mcharge]

$20!

Can see the page on and off, $20 why should i have to fork out MORE money on my ipod touch, when i have already paid $550 for it! this is ridiculous!

[XDerkaX]

agreed

I cannot understand this either. Surely the new features could be provided in a firmware update for free?

[sanenazok]

Apple iTracks

Can't wait for Apple to start the iTracking program for my iMac that iIntegrates with iTunes and iLife. It's such a relief that Apple will be able to iTrack me as long as I have a cell signal, and it's not even GPS (which could be turned off).

[mcharge]

Not tracking....

Apple is not tracking you, and you dont think people cant already do that?

Bad link on front page of news.com

clicking the Macworld08 image on the front page leads to a dead link

Servers Must Be Getting Smashed

Just keep trying to refresh can take up to 5 goes.

[-airren-]

who cares if he's seen blades of glory

geesh. wgaf?

[mcharge]

Adds depth.

How do we know he's not a computer? Things like that add depth and let us know he isn't, though if the computer was smart enough it would say something like to that to get this exact reaction, wouldn't it????

[sanenazok]

Apple TV Take 2

Geez the only way Apple TV would ever be useful is if it had an actual TV TUNER. That's the announcement I was hoping for...Oh well gotta stick with MCE.

[dankn]

This BLoggers is sloppy...Correction

Apple TV will now be able to be used WITHOUT A COMPUTER, not a
TV as is written. Dummy

[-airren-]

Slashgear or Macrumorslive

Each have a better auto updating blog.

I'm out - thought I'd get CNET's usually anti-apple slant, but this is unbearable.

[aaydogan]

Nice Try, but This Coverage is Lame....

Some of the worst writing I've read. How aout using someone
who can actually write coherent sentences instead of some
gadget geek? While I appreciate cNet's attempt to cover this live
the standards of journalism continue to decline with each day's
coverage.

[mattgoff]

So Go Somewhere Else Then

So why are you wasting your time here and taking even more time to post non-constructive criticism? Why not go somewhere else and spare us your negativity?

[faust]

Where is your coverage?

If you can do better than don;t let any of us stop you.

[sanenazok]

whatever

Hey I like this, it's not perfect (like writing that no TV is required for AppleTV- ***) but lay off the crapping. Nobody forces you to read this.

APPLE COPIES VUDU??!

The VUDU box movie download device has been around since September. Does almost the same thing as this new version of Apple TV. Awesome remote/interface and great picture quality, including HD movies. They will not be able to compete with Apple, hopefully they'll get bought out. check it out at vudu.com

[Lee in San Diego]

Who?

Never heard if them which is problem for a lot of products.

Now as Hedley Lamarr said in Blazing Saddles " Go do that VUDU
that you do so well!"

[dankn]

Much better blog here:
