First no video, then constant mixing between the TV Truck schedule, a video of the crowd, a video of the presentation screen showing the apple logo, a message showing apple copyright. Refreshed a few times, got 'access denied to server' page a few times. Then got video with Chinese translations talking over the presenter. Then it suddenly stopped, I pressed 'resume' to get the TV truck schedule again. On an iPad.

A whole bunch of people don't have a job in the morning.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Me! I've been wanting to replace my Windows desktop machine for a year now, but I've been waiting for a refresh on the mac mini.

Why not get one of the many other mITX computers, or even an Intel NUC?

I use a macbook air all day for work. I built my windows box when I was doing .NET development, but I've long since switched to ruby -- ideally I'd like to have both running the same OS (which I guess could be a flavor of linux, but I'm too lazy for that).

I'm getting older, so maybe my desires don't match up with the majority of tech people's anymore, but does anyone really want an iWatch (or whatever it ends up being called)? I am just not sold on the usefulness of such a thing.

I didn't get the point of a watch either, then I started surfing and needed to know when to stop to make it to work on time :)

There is a whole market of people that want apps for running, surfing, and other things that are nice to have in wearable form, but cumbersome to use in a phone form factor--assuming the phone is even waterproof.

Anyone else seeing the TV Truck schedule instead of the keynote right now?

10:07 and still black bars. Idiots. Edit- Getting it now, but I'm hearing a translator talking under Cook. Get it together. Edit2 - stream keeps cutting out. Disaster. Edit3 - Access Denied. And we're done.

Yea maybe they shouldn't overly promote a stream (homepage redirect? WTF) if they can't scale it at all
