Swad Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 As has been our tradition with Apple events in the past, I'm starting our dedicated thread for Apple's "Showtime" event. It's here that you'll find live updates (posted by our members from all the vast corners of the Web), pithy commentary, and a darn good time. Check out The Mac Observer's live feed for all the latest. InsanelyMac's "Almost Live Commentary Thread" - It's like being there. Only you're not actually there.

sandmanfvrga Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 I posted this in the schedule thread, but I noticed the Mac Mini price went down and the duo is $599. Somebody said it was like that, but I checked last week and it wasn't. Exciting, Macbook price cut? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

munky Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 i really want a c2d macbook, but i think the event on the 25th is more likely for this, if it happens at all. i have a nasty feeling we'll get the ipod/itunes stuff today, and c2d macbook pros on the 25th... leaving me and my macbook money at a loose end. ho hum, i guess i'll wait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p3n5t3r Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 What about iPod price cut? How much more are people willing to pay for a video ipod? Well hopefully it will be a 6 gen ipod, so the price stays the same, but I was thinking more of an additional line of ipods for video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandmanfvrga Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Nevermind, the mac mini prices were like that. *sigh* Would like cheaper Macbooks. Oh well, a Mac Mini might be in order.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
