If it's not real, it's a good fake. It would be a nice day if all of that is announced. I'm really looking forward to the iPhone SDK, as are many I would imagine. I'll be crossing my fingers.

If it is a fake...well played.

If it is real, that is truly disappointing. Like your older brother telling you your presents on Christmas Eve.

Dude, I told you I was sorry for that.

I already have a 0,8 inch notebook. I hope with LED display and solid state disk, the new MacBook will be slimmer.

My guess is that it's a fake, but it happens to coincide with the actual planned keynote anyway. ;P

fake: the mac pro was introduced a week ago.

vegashacker• 19 years ago

I don't think it says MacBook Pro, though. It's just talking about MacBooks.

zyroth• 19 years ago

That's why he was talking about the macpro and not the macbook pro.

I'm going to call BS on this one, for one simple reason: submitting source code to an application is both unlikely to fly with independent developers, and a pretty poor way to protect the underlying platform from malware.

The former is especially obvious in the context of independent OS X developers' love/hate relationship with Apple -- it's a great platform, but if your app proves too popular, Apple is likely to just roll their own version into the next release of the OS, and shove you out of the market. Giving them source code along with the deal is just not a good deal for anyone but the boys in Cupertino.

The second issue is more subtle, but no less important. Manually reviewing millions of lines of code submitted by random ADC members is hardly going to be cost or time-effective for Apple. Also, even if they did decide to eat the cost, it wouldn't work -- even gifted developers have a hard time doing strong security audits of their own code, much less that written by other people.

Overall, it looks like a wishlist, not a feasible leaked outline.

"-- it's a great platform, but if your app proves too popular, Apple is likely to just roll their own version into the next release of the OS, and shove you out of the market."

Now where have I heard that before?

What about the rumor of Jay-Z launching a record label with Apple? They could call it Apple Records.

nkohari2• 19 years ago

There's already an Apple Records. It was the Beatles' record label. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Records

N.B. You've been downmodded (though not by me) because the existence of Apple Records is common knowledge. The parent poster, relying on this knowledge, was being ironic.

Fake: SDK for iPhone is everyone's wet dream for some odd reason. They'll release the SDK when they go to an "OS-centric" mindset.

And who cares about apples?

I prefer bananas!
