There was something strange about Steve Jobs' Macworld keynote on Tuesday. The pacing was off.

It started off high energy with reports of unbelievable iPod sales and record revenues, which got the crowd whooping. Then it went into a doldrums with an interminable demo of new features in iLife, which had everyone dying for the One More Thing... "Come on Steve," we're all thinking. "Cut the crap and get to the good stuff."

So tonight I'm sitting in a bar when I run into an old friend, who is very highly placed in the Apple world. I hate to cite an anonymous source, but trust me, he knows.

And he tells me the keynote that Jobs gave was not the keynote he had planned. Some of the speech had been cut out. Key products were missing.

My source said there was some stuff, "some very, very cool stuff," that Jobs couldn't unveil because of "supply issues."

"They can't get enough Core Duo (chips)," said my source.

He also said that if he were me, he probably wouldn't order one of the new MacBook Pros.

I asked if there would be MacBook replacements for the 17-inch and 12-inch PowerBooks, but he said, "Oh, it's much cooler than that. Much cooler."

Bon, moi, de toute façon j'allais attendre un peu...

I asked if there would be MacBook replacements for the 17-inch and 12-inch PowerBooks, but he said, "Oh, it's much cooler than that. Much cooler."

"I think you're full of it. I work at Intel... They are in full production of the Yonah, and despite what you think about your narrow view of things, Intel is not going to have supply problems like IBM or Motorola has in the past.
Believe it or not, Apple is NOT the only customer Intel has for the Core Duo, and Intel is doing a monster launch of this chip."
lol.

Edit2: c'est quand même hallucinant le buzz autour des produits Apple. Je crois pas qu'il y ait un équivalent ailleurs. Ça mérite une étude !

Le MacBook pro est surtout là pour rassurer le marché et les utilisateurs, non? (je n'ose pas dire que le macbook est là pour assurer la transition).
Une sorte de proof of concept, et un pied-de-nez ultime à IBM: "avec intel, on a réussi à caser un processeur dernière génération, double-coeur, et en avance de 6 mois sur le planning, de surcroît" (5 mois si on compte que la livraison est en février).
Les Powerbooks sont toujours en vente, c'est à peu près tout ce dont on est sûr.

Punaise on s'en fout des autres intel n'a qu'à fournir tous ces processeurs à apple puis voilà!! :hein:
