I'm not exactly holding my breath

Then again, I'm completely happy with Snow Leopard. I'm just curious to see what they have come up with.

 

[greyskull]

new iLife. so far looks great.
new iMovie looks rediculous.
hold the phones. Garage band has flex time!
Groove matching matches instruments to a master groove track.
Its INSANE one click!

 

[Jarkko Mattheiszen]

Do want one of these MacBook Air's for live backing tracks.

 

[Ola Englund]

[ratsapprentice]

I can't fucking see it, the player loads for 2 seconds and then dissapears.

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

 

[Jarkko Mattheiszen]

Uhh... Tiny SSD drive, 2GB RAM and only USB2 Otherwise I would have loved the new 11" model.

 

[Kazrog]

Absolutely amazing announcements today. I've been criticizing Apple heavily as of late, but 10.7 looks amazing and the new MacBook Air finally gets it right, and at the right price point. Now all they need to do is a tower with iMac-level specs and pricing.

Why? Surely that's just an iMac-minus screen?

 

[JeffTD]

Why? Surely that's just an iMac-minus screen?

which decreases costs and opens up room for extra ports and PCI slots.

 

[ratsapprentice]

Fair enough with the PCI Slots, but that a monitor of that quality would cost a bomb to buy separately.
Assuming you were buying a new setup and needed one.

 

[Jarkko Mattheiszen]

Yeah, but you could buy two somehwat decent 24" screens for like $400 bucks. You don't HAVE to get the CinemaDisplay

Not that I don't absolutely love watching Full HD porn on my 27" iMac <3

Whats the difference in price between same/similar spec iMacs and Mac pro?
It can't be that much more can it?
(Ican't check it myself because I'm at work and it wont let me view the apple site)

About 500e here, but then the MacPro has 1GB less RAM and the processors aren't the same.

 

[ratsapprentice]

ouch

 

[greyskull]

Not that keen on that mission control thing.... I LOVE spaces, and never use exposé or hot corners. Really handy. Hope they don't kill it completely.
Also a bit confused by the new macbook air. The cheapest one here costs the same as a 13" Macbook white.....

 

[Loren Littlejohn]

Fucking thing crashes firefox. lol

I'll watch on my iphone later. From what I hear I'll be picking up the new ilife.
