[Mac Write]

What will you be doing on Tuesday?

I personally will be ordering Pizza for dinner, and watching the delayed keynote at 6PM, having boycotted the entire Mac web, and forums where possible Mac threads could pop up. I also won't be getting up until at least 12PM Pacific.

What will you be doing Tuesday?

Being in Asia right now, the keynote is skedded for 2am, so this will be all right. If up, I'll check out text highlights and see what the store has to offer. Then, I'll watch in the morning.

Its pretty easy to boycott everything here in the UK with the timings. The keynote is live here at 1800 local and then the webcast is available from 0200 Wednesday morning (roughly then I think). This means I will just watch a movie or whatever tonight and get up a bit earlier tomorrow and watch the keynote as if it was live (and about 4 hours after it first comes available.

What's that?

After the keynote, all of the information will be available on the web - which I will check out. I don't understand why you would wait to watch the keynote first and avoid the Internet until then. What is it, if it isn't spoon fed to you by Steve himself first then it isn't good enough?

For me it is nothing to do with being spoon fed but rather the excitment and experience of the whole keynote thing. Thats what a good presentation is about. I like to have something presented to me both orally and visually (in a high level form). I can then generate my opinion as things pan out rather than just jump on MacNN or the Apple website and have everything there in front of me. I find that a little anticlimatic.

I will be watching the keynote and then spending a lot of time looking at the web and reading others opinions here. The beauty of the timing for me is that there will be plenty to read here as a whole day will have past.

For a lot of people, yes.

Gold, you've always had some hot Asian chick in your sig. Pardon the derailment of train of thought, but who is she?

Aha! It's some chick I found on the internet that reminded me a lot of someone I know (looks-wise). I'll look up where I found the pics.

EDIT: here. Let your eyes feast. Found the linkage in this thread.

The site appears to be an Apple site at first glance, but this registration doesn't look kosher:

Does Apple routinely register domains for unnanounced products more than a year in advance, under pseudonyms @yahoo.com? And does Apple usually forget the comma between the day and year - i.e. "January 11 2005"

Wait a minute..when Apple plays the delayed stream it isn't On Demand isn't it? If you connect you could enter in the middle of the keynote. It doesn't just start at the beginning for you right? :/ 4am tonight/tomorrow here I come!

[Judge_Fire]

Well, since the keynote starts at 7 PM here, me and a few buddies will just grab some snacks and hunt for any emerging details. Nerd detectives in action, it'll sadly look something like The Lone Gunmen

Any MacNN iChat room there already?

it's not like i can afford to buy anything anyway.

[wdlove]

I'm hoping to be able to get some updates during the Keynote.

[historylme]

I always say that I am going to wait... but I never do. It's like an alcoholic saying that he's going to quit but never does. *shakes head in acknowledgment of addiction*
