    Did someone figure out what the tag line for the recent presentation -- "it's been way too long" -- was actually about?

     

    What exactly was 'way too long' to wait for in the recent set of updates/intros?

    Long time since a Mac Mini update. Too long to get retina displays of that size manufactured. WE’RE WAITING TOO LONG FOR BROADWELL.

     

    Take your pick. :p

    Also been a long time that we've waited for a laminated display on an iPad. ;)

    And also-the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus were 'way too long'.

    They're not hands-down faster than regular computers.

    But it's a really nice-looking floor-top computer!

    Although others have said Mac mini, I really think it was the Retina iMac. After all, it's several years since the iPhone and iPad went Retina. Now, finally, the iMac is, too.

    Seems convincing to me, and, I hope, to you, too.

    Not really. If 'adding retina to stuff from way too long ago' was the meme, then retina on the MBAir would have been an even bigger needle-mover.

     

    In fact, irrespective of the tag line -- which, I am beginning to think, was a bit lame relative to what actually transpired -- I am a bit disappointed that they had nothing at all on the MBAir front.

    A Mac mini update that, according to many Mac "faithful", at least if you read the Macrumors forums, is a huge slap in the face.

    That's not 'irony' it's 'coincidence'.

    Apple just sent out "thank you" emails for all Yosemite beta testers:

     

    This seems to be new as well...

    What chips would they use? Wasn't Broadwell delayed? I'm actually expecting a pretty big update next spring - new laptops and maybe this larger iPad that's been rumored.

    Reading MacRumors is always a slap in the face.

    I am sure the tagline came much later than knowledge of the (rumored) Broadwell delays and such.

    What good is accuracy when there's zero integrity?

    I'm not the one writing editorials with misleading headlines.
