It's Showtime, Folks!
Although I haven't made much mention of it quite yet, I've recently been bit by the Apple bug.
Yes, it's true. Me - one of the biggest Apple detractors of the past. What have I done?!
Actually, I went out and got me a MacBook. And I need to tell you, I couldn't be happier with it! I'm absolutely blown away with this little monster and all that it can do. The recent commercials aren't exaggerating when they detail the big differences between a Mac and a PC.
Why all of this Apple love today? It's an Apple Announcement day, of course.
Every once in a while, Apple calls together the press for what is usually a landmark reveal of all that is new in the Apple catalog. Past keynotes have included the announcements of iTunes, iPod, MacBook, and most recently, the new Mac Pro. I expect today's announcement to be just as Earth shattering.
Today, Apple is expected to announceme the sale of several items - most notably FULL MOVIES on the iTunes Music Store. (Needs a new name, huh?) Other announcements should include iTunes 7, a new, scratch-proof stainless steel iPod nano and possibly a wireless Video device to allow you to watch your Mac and PC videos on your SD and HD TV's.
Adding to all of this is this article (from The Unofficial Apple Weblog), which hints that Apple may in fact change the name of the iTunes Music Store (iTMS) to "Apple Showtime!" Could be a VERY ineresting day!
Here's a link to Apple, where you should be able to get all the juicy (Get it? Apple?) details shortly after lunch time:
(Oh, by the way - I took that screen capture above using Shift-Command-4 and then Space Bar to get just that window!)
