Since the 20th Anniversary Mac was kinda cool, im wondering that they will in 2007 for the 30th. It had better be something really cool.

Was Steve Jobs around at the time of the 20th Anniversary Mac? If he wasn't, it may not be his style to do anything, but I'd like to see something, even if it's only a limited edition.

It would be a chance to reveal some of their industrial design karma, something that wouldn't fly in huge numbers and is really forward thinking: too forward thinking... like a teaser.

In fact, I'd love to see a low end fun anniversary product, too. Like a revised Mac Classic, built around the mini and an LCD screen.
When you were young and your heart was an open book, you used to say "live and let live."
But if this ever changing world, in which we live in, makes you give in and cry, say "live and let die."

I'm sure that it will be very exciting.

They will do nothing...Just like they did for the 25th. It won't be until the 40th anniversary that we see something new or cool. The Mid-Life Crisis Mac®

Apple doesn't do silly commemerative, high-priced, junk anymore just because another 5 years has passed. As long as they stick to releasing great and better products every year, they will keep me happy.
