It's Steve that doesn't seem to know what half the technobabble means. He even admits is on stage from time to time "we've got a trinlinear VBOS ASIC - whatever one of those is"
Yeah with the G5 about branch prediction.

It has 2 branch prediction units...well they predict branches...

I say bring back good ole Guy Kawasaki to do the Keynote. Now there is a good speaker.

That said, at least it won't be Ross Ho doing it
Did Roz get a sex change?

Frank Casanova? Here's a recent pic (taken from this article; I think the image is too big to be posted inline)...

He's not wearing an ugly sweater in that picture, he's wearing an ugly button-down shirt.

Hey now! For the record, that shirt is actually seriously nice, the photo was taken with super bad lighting and getting anyone in my family to take a half decent photo is one of the most painful experiences you've ever imagined, my mom takes about 5 minutes to find the shutter button.

And for the record, those shirts with a pair of olive green cargo pants looks killer. As for the rest of me, I'm still working on it, dropped two pant sizes this year and will be working out with some of the other guys at school once the year starts.

Not so much (but pretty good, as you say), but I've been at the Schiller Museum in Marbach (near Stuttgart) some years ago: very interesting.

I wonder if Apple's Phil Schiller is an American (of Germanic origins, of course), or maybe a German/Austrian/Swiss who has lived in the US for many years: he doesn't seem to have any accent, anyway...
