What I love about MOSR is they've mastered the art of writing endlessly wordy articles that say absolutely nothing:

"With the most recent wave of out-there rumors and what appears to be a series of intentional mis-information "leaks" by certain perennial pranksters (you know who you are) behind us, we're taking a considerably more skeptical -- but also increasingly confident -- view of what to expect from Macworld."

I predict that Steve will wear casual shoes, blue jeans, a black shirt (I've heard it may or may not be a turtleneck, sources could not confirm), and he'll carry a bottle of water.

My sources were unsure if he would be clean shaven or have his beard, but they were confident that Jobs will be wearing glasses.

This is my fav one:
"New Powerbooks and PowerMacs may not show up at the Expo, but they are due soon either way"

Wow, talk about having the inside scoop! I mean he is totally spilling the beans that if Apple doesn't update the current hardware today that they will in the future!"

Now I know why eveyone goes there!

Sources say that Steve is wearing a red lace teddy and spike heels. he came out holding his water bottle between his index and middle finger, palm down. His rhinestone glasses glistened in the bright lights.

Playing in the background was Gloria Gaynor"s "I will Survive."

Holy cow they are soooo awesome! How come Apple isn't suing them for all the "news and dirt"????

So lets see how MOSR did.

1) New entry-level Mac(s).
Half right, ONE mac.

2) iPod Mini updated from 4GB to 5GB, new iPod variant based on Flash memory.
WRONG and right.

3) Fruits of Apple's relationship with Sirius satellite radio.
WRONG!

4) New Powerbooks and PowerMacs may not show up at the Expo, but they are due soon either way.
WRONG!

So why do people go there?
