Is this working for anyone? Can't watch it in Chrome, and on Safari I'm prompted to install Quicktime. I'm on a Mac. On the Quicktime download page it just warns that I already have QT installed. Very confusing.

Windows 8.1 is also free, so no real surprise here. Anyway, good work Apple!
8.1 is a smaller update than Mavericks, which is itself a smaller update than Win8 or Win7 (in terms of release schedule and scope, not judging quality or quantity of engineering). Apples and oranges, so to speak.

(honest question) - Is windows 8.1 free if I have a (full, standalone) copy of XP or Vista, or only if I own Windows 8? Mavericks appears to be free for people with Snow Leopard (at least, that's what I read).
Wasn't your point but FYI it's free for Lion and up

#87Tim's voice shakes a lot. I wonder what makes him so nervous.
Yeah, what could possibly be nerve-wracking about public speaking to hundreds of thousands of people, where a single mis-step can be remembered and mocked until the end of his days?

Unless you're interested in Metro (nobody), is there anything remotely interesting about 8.1? Mavericks has some impressive battery and performance improvements that anyone will be able to use.
I'd be mad if I had to pay for 8.1. I would've happily paid for Mavericks.

That's live coverage, not the event itself. Last time I saw one of these they were shambling trying to get video from people's iphones inside the hall and a couple of their guys got caught and were asked to leave.
Nope, this time they're streaming the actual event (Apple's providing it, they can just re-stream).
But they do editorialize on top (and cough and sniffle)... fortunately, only occasionally.

Free upgrade or free for everyone? Would be awesome if it could be run in a VM on any hardware for free.
He said Lion and up, not sure if there will be a paid option at all. I've got a feeling that it won't support hardware that didn't come with an earlier model (he mentioned the hardware that it supports but I haven't cross referenced the default OS for those).
They have been pretty crappy about people emulating it so I wouldn't be surprised if this is an easy way for them to make that even more difficult.
