me too...!
for a designer with such a relationship with typefaces as yours you should know that Apple's usual font is Myriad Set and that this is in fact a version of Myriad Set, just the rarely used 'light' version
see here for comparison: http://img508.imageshack.us/my.php?image=myriadrd6.png
I agree. I came to the end just to say that the font is Myriad Pro Light. The perspective may be throwing people off but if you really work with typefaces this was obvious.

No it will not as I do not support cutting back on the Military ...
You're in Canada? And you don't support the United States cutting back? Would you like anything else? May I bring you a comfy pillow to prop your feet upon, and a little something from Tim Horton's?
My point was, how 'bout if the USA reduces its military spending to $1 less than the Canadian military budget? Then the Canucks are the badasses, and we Yanks fall in line with the rest of the world. Everybody's happy.

OK, I hear you. Seriously then, the white MacBook is a great machine. It's light-grey inside if that makes any difference to you ;)
But if you don't need a new laptop right now, it's always better to wait. Lucky for you that Macworld SF is just around the corner and something new always gets announced. I'd be surprised though if these laptops see any changes then though. The next update will be nearer summer 2007 I reckon, when Intel start shipping the 800Mhz bus Merom updates with Santa Rosa.
I'm a serial watcher of these things. I can wait a little while longer yet as my current machine still works ok.

My take on this is that in order for the iPOD Classic to survive, it needs the larger HDs now available, IOS & a touch screen. Then it would be essentially a tiny iPAD + a large capacity iPOD and I think some people not wanting to carry around such a large device as the iPAD might like that.
Otherwise, if sales are sluggish, they'll have no choice but to euthanize it. Pity, because it's still the only Apple device that many people can fit their ENTIRE music collection on. My iPhone certainly doesn't and doesn't for many people.

Gah!! This gapless playback thing is annoying me. I upgraded as soon as the keynote finished and it's still analysing my library (37825 songs). What's it even for?!

But you know Apple's got a WiFi iPod in the works, and then the statement on WiFi will be that it's "indispensable." Love that guy.
Well maybe the WiFi on the vPod will actually be useful for something, like buying tracks or syncing with your PC/Mac or even some light web browsing...
The Zune's wireless is so neutered that it's essentially useless...

Oh come on. How often do we actually have to access our optical drives? While you may do so often, many of us almost never do and would be happy to attach an external drive every now and then or even access the disc we need over the network.
The optical drive in my laptop broke a few months ago. I haven't missed it much. The one time I did need it, I hooked up my external drive, so it is necessary to have one.

Having watched the video I cannot describe how excited I am about the new FCP. Coming from working on a monstrous project this will save so much time with the new interface. I am so excited about the magnetic timeline, I cannot wait to get my hands on it.

24 must be your musical IQ; get some education before you enter discussions like this.
This isn't a discussion, this is a bunch of people with nothing better to do than argue about a music store.
Bach is awesome.
The Beatles are awesome.
Go outside, people.

I'm not sure the iPhone device shown on picture and movie is a fake.
I suppose it is just not the CDMA or GSM mobile phone device we think about.
Il could be just some kind of WIFI device that let us:
- use iChat, via Wifi, at a distance of the computer
- call via IP from home ( a new feature comming to iChat).
- control home music on airport express
- Watch a clip or movie...
- ...
Some kind of remote Front Row...
One thing that make me think its real is that, on the WWDC, just under the 64 bits logo, left, there is a small device like a long ipod in its cradle, that could perfecly be that "Remote Front Row"

I ranked this as a neg only since there are supply chain issues... why add another retailer?
Select Radio Shack stores have the iPhone also. So it is not a surprise they would carry the ipad or even iPods
The timing suggests two possibilities
1. The contract mandates this date regardless of any issues
2. There aren't any supply issues, or very shortly won't be

Has anyone seen anything about being able to redownload TV shows we already purchased with the higher resolution. I haven't seen anything, but if Apple doesn't offer this, I'll be pretty peeved off as I just bought these shows recently.
I'd like to know this as well.

Well spoken, blitzkrieg79.
It is amazing to me that otherwise intelligent people parrot the corporate line that its simply not possible to manufacture products domestically and remain profitable. Do people really think that $80 name brand shirts, $140 shoes, or the $2500 computers being made on the other side of the planet are being sold at a price anywhere near what it actually cost to make? C'mon.
Why is it every time a company moves manufacturing overseas, we never see a reduction in the price?
If Apple was just barely squeezing out a profit and scraping by, holding on by their fingernails, I'd buy their line about needing to manufacture practically everything overseas, but we're talking about a company that makes absolutely enormous profits.
So Apple simply can't afford to manufacture here anymore? Well, how much profit did Apple make last quarter, again? Haha, sure, right.

Why are you guys all against 3D? I think its great, BUT I think its a given that you will be able to turn off the 3D.. And if that is the case then there is no problem really :P
Because it's a ridiculous feature that only retards, who have been brainwashed into thinking it's cool, want, but the rest of us who will never use it (or even go out of their way to avoid it) will pay for.
The human brain is capable of decoding depth out of an image using a myriad of other clues (such as occlusion) and the use of the stereoscopic effect is, in my opinion, overrated. It just results in blurred or jarred motion and a crap viewing experience.

Ok, I see your point. But when does the consumer stand up and say "I DON'T WANT WINDOWS ON MY COMPUTER" and force the Dells to load something else besides Windows. If the OS was so undesirable, the consumer would have been up in arms. Dell sells computers with Linux preloaded, but I don't see Linux making any dent in anyones armor.
I'd sooner wait for hell to freeze over.

Plenty of people buy Macs for the hardware. If I needed a laptop right now to run Windows and nothing else, then obviously I would have to check whether I am mentally capable of using Windows for any length of time without throwing the laptop out of the window, but once I've found the strength to do that, the 13" MBP or one of the MBAs are probably the least miserable way to run Windows.
Of course, if you are praying every day that your laptop breaks down because you have to use Windows, then a MacBook is not for you.
Even the reviewers have acknowledge that Windows runs better on Mac hardware due to the tight coupling between the hardware and the device drivers that Apple includes.
