    Leave it to Apple to screw up an OS by not supporing "supported" hardware. Apple Applogist (TM)

    listen, i have a friend who used to work on apple's ad account (no he doesn't work there anymore ) and NOTHING gets through without approval from upper-management. so these teasers aren't just being written by some guy in marketing and slapped up on apple's homepage. it's being approved by the guy on top. hi steve.

    Just a thought... is apple legally allowed to do this if they DON'T have something that shareholders will believe lives up to the hype they created? the farther they go with this, the more my jaw drops.... i feel like someone kicked me in the groin right now... and frankly, it feels strangely good!

    erbium, well in the dell ads that steve kid gets pretty excited



    but yea, apple does goto great lengths to satisfy the consumer, at least sometimes, other times its nothing but crap upon crap

    man...and I was doubting my stance on apple computers, if all this hype turns out to be worth it, then I'm soooo glad I own ALOT of aapl share

    Wow.



    The first two were just hype:



    7) Big. Even by our standards.

    6) Count the days. Count the minutes. Count on being blown away.



    Yeah, rah-rah-rah.....



    But:



    5) Beyond the rumor sites. Way beyond.



    That's just cruel. They are mocking us!



    Ah, well. I'll stick by this <a href="http://forums.appleinsider.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=1&t=000421"; target="_blank">thread</a>'s predictions.



    But I've officially lost my jaded stance. I am.....salivating.

    Better hurry. Each store can only take so many people before it becomes a fire hazard so you'll need to get yourself an invitation now.

    Cool down people!



    Actually I think Apple realised that the expectations on the rumor-sites are way out of hand compared to what Apple are able to deliver. I'm sure they have got some great stuf, but no G5 or LCD imacs. This is why they wright they go "beyond".



    I'm sorry to soyund this pessimistic. But I stil think i'm right.
