    Yeah, why not... After Warm Bodies I'll play some pc games or gather wwdc coverage live coverage sources for tomorrow.


    Got the Sims3, Tomb Raider, and Bioshock so that should waste my time... and you're right. I would be all worked up if I was the one presenting tomorrow.

    Live blogs (few video streams) for WWDC in case any one hasn't been able to find decent sources or they're too lazy to.

    ENGADGET


     


    GIGAOM


     


    TECHNO BUFFALO

    I never find hardware announcements that exciting. Sometimes I get excited about software, but it's usually a case of where it enables something that I wouldn't have deemed either doable or practical with prior software.

    Less than 12 hours to go.


     


    Adobe updated Lightroom.


     


    Apple really needs a Pro event (if not WWDC).


     


    An update to Logic (and Aperture) is way, way, way overdue.  Toss in some new features for FCPX.  Have some heavyweight guests so that the people online who call themselves "pros" yet spend hour after hour complaining as opposed to actually working will have to at least pause.

    Also, Apple should buy Luxology/The Foundry; make Modo the new Apple 3D software and combine the best parts of Shake & Nuke/NukeX into Phenomenon…

    I liked the fact we were right about everything.


     


    G4 Cube Mac Pro... Done.... an even smaller Mac Pro that looks like a one of those fruit and vegetable ninja choppers.


    Wifi AC on a new Macbook... Done.


    iRadio... Done.


    Maps on Mac OS X.... Done.


    Airdrop on iOS 7... Done.


     


    Two small complaints...


     



    The battery percentage font is different than the time font, and those circles that signify carrier neutrality really bothered me during the keynote.


    Also the music player in iTunes is white and red... it should be black and grey like iOS 5ish and before. Song lists should have a black background and white thin fonts similar to those used in the weather app.


     



    Also that call text might be a bad thing if they don't add drop shadow to it to images that are white.


     


    It feels like they threw out everything Steve Jobs believed in design for a simple white UI... which will drain battery a lot faster. Nonetheless, it's great..

    You missed the really big problem here (though you're right; combating "too large" drop shadows by making them objectively too small was wrong)…

    To me tho, I find that my life has changed so much just because one dumb ass, decided to work with Bill Gates, and selected all his software, instead of working with someone else, 1983, which created a chain effect of others doing the same, till some guy said, what about this Steve Jobs guy  That dumb ass' decision has impacted my life and the lives of others so much in the last 30 years it's sick!  The fact that people will get a grip and understand that Desktop Computers and Laptop Computers are not going away, and they are going to be supported, especially because they didn't merge iOS and OSX.


     


    It is so exciting that Apple is still Apple.  We were in a lull for a while, with all the media saying it's an tablet world... desktop sales are dropping it's over it's over blah blah
