Apple Event Oct 22

Anyone there? I was watching the live feed while waiting for lunch downtown, then took in the full event on Apple when I got back to the office.

I have to say they are awesome at getting hype on their products (no PT Barnum references here please). I soooo want to sell my iPad and Macbook Air and upgrade to the latest, and no I am usually the last one to get upgrades after 3-4 years, but man I want the new stuff.

OS upgrade - free (all the way back to the iMac) - Nice, iLife, iWork - free, nice

Very smart move as you can see the line between desktop and mobile device blurring more (yes MS has this idea as well)

I jumped on the Mavericks upgrade and it went smooth as butter from Lion; downside was my Parallels needed upgrading and I have an old copy of ADmitMac that needed to be deleted before I could access network shares.

I must say I would die for a MacPro fully loaded, but will have to wait to win the lotto first beautiful piece of Engineering!

I think Apple had an excellent event and really gave people what they wanted. IMHO

Thoughts?
