Depends what you mean by "big"...
Appears to me that the only people hyping MWSF 2002 a lot this go around are those on this board. Apple is not really hyping it any more than they have in the past. Every keynote over the last three years has been billed as one "you won't want to miss"... and even on the Special Promos page at <a href="http://www.apple.com/store" target="_blank">www.apple.com/store</a> there are deals "you won't want to miss"...
So my expectation is that there is a play on the word "big". What do YOU think "big" refers to?
Some ideas...
1. A BIG 36-inch cinema display
2. A BIG Pentium IV processor in a Mac
3. A BIG 50 lb. 17-inch CRT iMac
4. A BIG Phil Schiller now weighs 300 lbs.
5. A BIG wait for the next system. "Shipping in 120 days!"
Pro. Go. Whoa.
Good. Better. Best.
Big. Bigger. Biggest.

Something I haven't seen mentioned is maybe they just meant to say that the CONFERENCE was going to be "big", i.e., lots of exhibitors, lots of seminars. It didn't specifically mention the keynote or Apple products.

Even if there are new iMacs (that is 100%) and even new G5s (that is maybe 50/50) I think the something that is "Big" is beyond these. It will be something totally different from what we have seen before. What, I am not sure, but it will surprise us.

what about blown away? I don't think it will be a play on words considering all that has happened this year...
Something is around the corner, and we all have absolutely NO clue. Isn't it GREAT??!?!

It's the anti-Cube!
