Apple officially announces June 5 WWDC keynote via media invitations
Apple on Tuesday issued invitations to members of the media for a keynote presentation on June 5 in San Jose, where the company will kick off its annual Worldwide Developers Conference and unveil the next-generation versions of iOS and macOS.

The keynote will take place at the McEnery Convention Center beginning on Monday, June 5 at 10 a.m. Pacific, 1 p.m. Eastern. AppleInsider will be there live.
Unlike in years past, where Apple has hyped WWDC keynotes with splashy graphics and taglines that create intrigue, this year's media invitation is decidedly low-key. There are no hints about what the company could be unveiling at this year's event, which is less than a month away.
The keynote is not a surprise -- Apple traditionally kicks off WWDC with a media presentation, and the dates for WWDC were officially announced back in February. Apple has been operating on an earlier-than-usual timeframe this year, allowing developers and members of the media more time to prepare for a change of location, from San Francisco to San Jose.

After the keynote, WWDC will run through the week until June 9. This year's event is widely expected to be headlined by the introduction of iOS 11 and macOS 10.13, as well as tvOS 11 and watchOS 4. The McEnery Convention Center will host 5,000 developers and 1,000 engineers.
Beyond Apple's four major software platforms, this year's event is also expected to feature the introduction of new hardware. Specifically, rumors of a Siri standalone home speaker have been heating up in recent weeks, suggesting the new smart home accessory could be unveiled on June 5.

The iPad Pro lineup is also due for an upgrade to Apple's A10 series of chips first introduced with the iPhone 7. There have been rumors that a complete redesign of the tablet is in the works, without a home button, but it's unclear whether such a device would show up as soon as WWDC.
Also due are new MacBooks, especially Apple's 12-inch model with Retina display, which has not been updated in over a year. The first two generations of the 12-inch MacBook both debuted in the springtime.

Tim Cook is desperately trying to invoke Steve Jobs out of his grave to return and save Apple again from corporatisis and eat the brains of their design dead.
Bravo! I wonder how long it took you to come up with that?
Developers, developers, developers
Maybe Steve Ballmer will make an appearance? Windows for iPad?!
Citation needed.
They admitted they are over a year out, which tells us the cupboard is bare.
Apple could easily let mac OS run on HP Workstations that are up to spec. They do not have to do unlimited licensing and Workstation market users are not impressed with how thin or how whatever the design is. HP is selling Xeon class workstations with Nvidia 2GB RAM GPUs for less than stopped out Mac mini.
The keys to Hackintosh vs Macintosh is the EFI and I am sure H-P could adapt their designs quickly if they could get some extra sales.
Steve Jobs first job was at H-P and Woz worked there as well. This would let Apple concentrate on skinny underpowered laptops that are fashion statements and H-P can sell the more serious hardware for people who use their computers for more than Facebook.
I have a 2010 Mac Pro and am tired of waiting.
Get over it.
