'We're kinda done with power!' -Steve Jobs
Long has a 'tribute' been due to my favourite company - Apple. What better ocassion than today, when Apple just announced Intel iMacs, iLife'06, iWork'06 and some other things. The 'One more thing', something that I had been waiting for from quite a long time, was the best of them all - Macbook Pro, which is four times faster than the last PowerBooks. Karan will probably be pre-ordering his right away, lucky ass. These new Intel Macs have freaking dual core processors, and seeing how the hacked OS X boots in a blink on current intel PCs, I can tell that these new ones are going to blaze through!
A great keynote as always, and an ad worth checking out - the Intel in a Mac Ad.

i know man.....being separated from the iPod is torturing but cant help really.
and ya the Macbook Pro is one strong beautiful thing. and i really found that like in the Intel ad funny>>> "iinside a dull little box, dutifully performing dull little tasks"...so true isnt it??. but sad i am not able to view the Keynote. trust rungta to dowload it soon from somewhere and pass it on.

Too bad Nag and Sumit, as Varenya said, the keynote can't be downloaded. We can only watch the Webcast, which I've done and as I mentioned earlier, its great. The Intel Ad, as Nag said, is too good, and so is Apple's Intel campaign tagline - "What's an Intel chip doing in a Mac? A whole lot more than its ever done in a PC."
