    Medici comin' for the top dollah

    Mar 9, 2015
    Anyone catch any of it? I just read up on a live blog and I have to say I'm loving the changes to their notebooks. Still speculative on the watch and I'd like to see the price because it seems like they'll be way too expensive for the limited functionality that they'll have.

    Also while I was on their site it occurred to me why they called the watch Apple Watch instead of following the trend of the i'Product'. It would be a PR nightmare if they called it 'iWatch' especially with all the hoopla of privacy invasion from tech companies and NSA.

    Only cared about the Watch announcement and Oh My God it was such a disappointment. $1000 for a piece of tech that will be obsolete in 12 months is ridiculous! I'm sure the cheap one will sell by the bucket load, which is good I suppose is good to help get smart watches in the mainstream. But there are smart watches that are already available that are a fraction of the price and hugely superior.

    Yeah it was boring as f--- tbh. All I wanted to know was when the Apple Watch was going to be released, & glad the Apple Tv got lowered to $69, even though I have one.

    That watch is very ugly and also why would you want to have an apple product with a screen that small on your wrist? Lol, just seems stupid and pointless. Like are you really gonna do all those things from your watch? Lol...I didn't watch the presentation so maybe I'm getting the wrong idea, but definitely doesn't sound appealing to me.

    With that said, it'll still be a huge hit I'm sure just cuz it's apple.

    Very cool new MacBook. Seems like it'll be so delicate though! It seems pretty close to those 2017 screens seen in the most recent Parks and Rec season.

    Watch is cool but totally useless really if you already have an iPhone in your pocket. It will be cool 10 years from now if it replaces your phone but until then, it's pretty much just to show how much you're ballin

    Now that the price is lowered I'm thinking about getting one of the Apple TVs. How do you like it?

    Best streaming device ever, has Hulu Plus, Netflix, & if events happen like there was one today, there is an app that you can live stream on it on your tv, instead of going to your computer to do it. & if you have an iPhone or Mac you can airplay that device to your apple tv and see everything on your iPhone on tv, same if you wanna watch movies on it, also has youtube app and other applications. Best hundred bucks I spent.

    Can you airplay your iPhone or Android to it & play apps/games/youtube videos on it?
