MacWorld Expo 2002

MacWorld Expo 2002 opens Tomorrow... with the Keynote today. I won't bore you with all the details (our keynote page)... but the highlights include:



- New Flat Panel iMac

- iPhoto

- Mac OS X as standard Boot on new machines

- 14" iBook and price drops



Of note, I was very impressed by iPhoto... all the components involved have been in place, but bringing them together in one package is what Apple does best.

I'll say...

1) I'm surprised there are no new Towers.... but they did just update them 6 months ago... in the past time gaps between towers has been much greater... regardless, I'm wondering how good this is though - because the new iMac is an amazing value. Many people will go for it instead of PowerMac towers.

2) iPhoto is insanely fine...

This really may be the killer app for OS X... imho. seriously - go watch the keynote about it if you missed it... it's amazing...

I always hesitate when I see Apple entering into e-commerce sort of sites... but the overal package of iPhoto is excellent.

am I the only one that is wondering why anyone would buy a tower now?
yeah the iMac is really swish and nice, but it makes the towers look seriously overpriced and underpowered....
Is apple really only interested in consumer machines?? and free consumer apps?

im a little underwhelmed.....

I don't think they lived up to the hype. I was expecting much more. Though the new iMac is pretty revolutionary. How does the CD-ROM work, I missed that part?

All in All - I give it an okay. I'm glad they are selling a lot of the iPods which is impresive given the price point.

Don't believe the hype is what I'll be thinking next time. I'm very let down. I don't think the new iMac will do very well. Too "spacy" for middle America.

must be planning to just come out with G5 next time. the new iBook is cool. With all the pre-show hype i fell somewhat used. OS X default, iPhoto, and the iMac. What was all the crap about going were no PC had ever gone before.

iMac is nice... i hope it catches on. iBooks looks cool too, i might be able to go in debt for one of those.

I think this is a big disapointment! Apple's new slogan???

THINK CRAP!!!

Its bad enough Apple can't keep a secret. It's even worse their own web site gave it away just hours before the unveiling. It's really bad that the SECRET was crap!! The overal design is not bad. Its got a lot of features. But come on ITS UGLY!!! And I know your all gonna say the more I look the more it will grow on me... BULL S#w%... It should not have to grow on anything. This thing looks like a fake computer replica you might have seen on an old 50s sci-fi movie. (a bad 50s sci-fi movie). Maybe if Apple would get rid of the boring off-white its using on everything it wouldnt look so bad. Or perhaps they are trying to develope a marketing strategy to sell more G4s!! (which should be G5s). I think it will work. After all nobody in my circle of friends would dare put such a peice in their living room. AND I WORK FOR APPLE!!!!

ok im done... now tell me how much you think im wrong!
