Apple Event: October 24th?

[bennetsaysargh]

what would a big "X" have to do with iTunes?
you need to think logical.
anyway, do you think the lights will be at all apple stores? or just the big 3?
me and my brother are planning to camp out in front of palisades like usual for events

haha so i just realized one of the benifits of being a student developer, i get free gold master updates of the OS, so much for stressing on the price of updating a month after buying a new comp...

LOL!

I'm guessing you're not too happy with a particular university at the moment?

Update: October 24th reportedly also coincides with a new Apple Store opening in San Diego, CA at University Towncenter Mall.

Well, unless this is the start of a trend where Apple sets up a nighttime display of Mac Os X's in the sky, I'd say it is more than just a store opening. Is there anything particularly special about this store (as opposed to the other 5,000 in Southern California?)

Holy rusted brushed metal Batman!

Panther and iTunes Windows. Yep...

 

[RichP]

Mmm...Panther..

Soho people..we should have a macrumors get together and rush the store; bring powerbooks and do the upgrade on the spot..lol.

I hope that if they do have a giant spotlight in the sky, that they have one at every flagship store (the grove, soho, and of course,NORTH MICHIGAN AVENUE!!!!) If they only have it in california, every mac fan in cal. better bring cameras and share plenty of pics for everyone else. I can't wait!! I love waiting in line for apple stuff, ex. woodfield, oakbrook, North Michigan Avenue apple store openings; ipod live 5.02.03, and soon old orchard apple store opening and panther!!!!

I LOVE APPLE!!!!!!

Maybe the X in the sky is a Batman-style signal to summon the X-Men and an iTunes DJ will play the X-Men theme song? OK, maybe that's a bit of a streeeeeeeeeeeetch.

lol. i seriously doubt iTunes for windows unless if it's not on october 24th.
i would expect it to be closer to the holidays because of iPod sales and other stuff like that.

If Apple's gonna put it in the sky,than what will they do for the stores at the malls.Perhaps they put the X on the ceiling.







Hurry Was to the Palisades

 

[G4scott]

No no no, guys, you've got it all wrong...

Apple actually ordered three of these lights for this store to spell out "XXX". They're just having "Free Strippers at the Apple Store" night! Woo Hoo!!! I need to get a plane ticket...

With every copy of panther you buy, you get a free lap-dance. With every new iTMS for windows account you setup, you get a free show, and a lap-dance for every 120 songs you buy...

Apple's showing the RIAA how to sell music...

 

[applemacdude]

So if I buy an imac today and Panther comes out, within a month can i get it for free?

Sex is never free! NEVER!!

 

[Bunzi2k4]

sweet ther's gonna be another apple store in San Diego!!! sweet i'm gonna have to go and check it out :-D

 

[bennetsaysargh]

lol. lap dance with copy of panther!
i am sure a lot of you will buy a few copies of panther

 

[G4scott]

If you buy the family pack, they'll take you to the back room...

 

[the future]

But most geeks will prefer to rush home to install Panther, won't they...

 

[cubist]

I don't think they'd have an in-store event for iTunes for Windows. How would they run it, in VPC?

I didn't know about this, I am a student Developer member also, do you know if this is confirmed? Will we receive it in the Developer tools mailing?

 

[moby1]

Yes, you will.

You'll probably get it about a month after the retail version goes out.

 

[nyctopterus]

Big X? Big deal?

XServes and Panther.

duh, he was obviously making fun of the shipping delays on the dual G5....

 

[chacha75]

I really hope so...I've been waiting patiently for Panther and the new 12" Powerbook 1Ghz....If both ship by the end of next month that would be so cool...

Mac OS X Conference on the 27th

Another intereseting possibility of having the Apple event around the 24th, is that the O'Reilly OS X conference starts on the 27th of October. Wouldn't it be cool if Apple decides to do the announcement at the conference? Hmmmm....
