My Summary of Macworld ’09
January 7, 2009
So it was the last Macworld ’09 ever for Apple… to sum up here were some of the new things released:
- New Aluminum Unibody 17″ Macbook Pro
- DRM Free Music for iTunes
- iLife ’09
- iWork ’09
Several expected releases such as new Mac Minis and iMacs did not appear… I have also heard a lot about the new Snow Leopard operating system in the past few weeks but nothing new was announced at Macworld.
To me, it was a little disappointing… The results clearly did not match the hype. No surprise to see drop in Apple stock in afternoon right after the keynote.
However, they did release the revolutionary Macbook Wheel
Stanley,
Are you a Mac user?
I’m a PC user myself, but as this PC is reaching the end of it’s rather long life, I’m considering making the switch to Mac the next time I need a new machine.
If there’s one Mac aspect which interests me, it’s the ScreenFlow screen capture program, which seems far superior to anything on the PC.
Many marketers – Ed Dale in particular – constantly speak of the superiority of the Mac as a machine in general, but particularly as a tool for internet marketers.
What’s your take on this? How, and why, are Mac a better machine for marketers (if you believe so at all?)
