Second comment, double-dipping.

I still thank Snell for the live update, but I'm sorely frustrated and disappointed with Jobs' keynote. Way too much iPod, iPhone, and movies, movies, movies, and iTunes sales and stuff, etc.

That's it. I don't think a majority agree with me.

I bought a Mac in 1984. I'm a MacMan. I love the computer and all it can do. I want more computer hardware and software and tips and power-using -- and less of the other.

I don't think a majority agree with me, but, hey, most people think the U.S. hasn't become the biggest rogue nation in the world.

How the mighty have fallen.

On a Macworld Expo blog? Completely uncalled-for.

Dude, get a grip. That's what Randy Newman said.

If you don't like it, I suggest to write a note to Mr. Jobs suggesting that he not invite Randy Newman to future keynotes, or if he does invite him, that he refrain from talking about his uncles, the stock market, our leaders, foreign policy, or any of the other things Randy Newman talked about today.

Thanks for the comment. Full props to Dan Moren who did most of the work. I only wrote the stuff in red.

Of course we can't control the content. We just report.

Sadly, looks like the end of an era. MacBook Air may contain flaws like the battery (this happened to Ericsson), like the CPU chip-packaging (this happened to Sony), like users still asking for optical drives. The iTunes video rental extension may not succeed getting a significant part of Hollywood catalog on offer. Isn't this video rental scheme an infamous return of DRM ? Let us not forget Apple TV is definitely a flop. iPhone market share, apart from the early sales period, is not building a significant market share on the long run. Mobile operators will throw away iPhone when some competion will exist from Nokia and Samsung. There is no single sign of any redeployment of Apple as a major player in publising business, I mean, publishing rich content using internet. God save the Apple ! AAPL will drop to 125 USD around June 2008, when Nokia and Samsung will bring an answer to the iPhone. AAPL may eventualy drop to 99 USD if new hardware do face massive returns (see above). AAPL may regain with the 200 USD line when Apple will deploy a strategy allowing them to become a new de-facto standard in publishing rich content using internet. What about the gaming console market ? Nothing ? Maybe they act like this on purpose ! Who knows !
