Apparently they had nothing better to do. Personally, I don't make a habit of staring at UI elements when I use my computer. I typically have a certain task I want to accomplish, and I focus on that. As long as Mac OS allows me to get stuff done easily, I really couldn't care less whether the perspective of some stupid UI element is slightly off. -- E-mail sent to this address may be devoured by my ravenous SPAM filter.

I've tried the dock on the side, and it’s OK on the laptop right until I connect a second display. It's not worth moving the dock given how much I use it (or don’t use it, rather) so it lives on the bottom. I never minded the glass dock, but I also don't much care one way or the other. It demos well, I'll give it that. -- The easiest way to find something lost around the house is to buy a replacement.

It's the same free 5GB we have always had, it seems the difference is the restoration of some stuff such as file sharing which we lost when iDisc and mobileme went away.

Concurrency? (not sure that was the name) but being able to move from
phone to computer to iPad seamlessly and even make calls or send SMS from
other devices? Oh yeah.
Widgets into Notification Center? Sounds great.
I like the new features in Safari and I am pleasantly surprised that RSS
is back.

It seems that between the “Notifications” and the Dashboard and it’s widgets they’re going to cobble together ONE thing that will might really be useful: A quick way to see the x number of things that are interesting to *the user* on an immediate basis. Spotlight, over many a year, cobbled together more effectively with the app launcher, seems to be maturing to a really usable item. Mail Drop looks functional. We’ve been using Air Drop around the house here, the wife and I, and the ability for her to use it, as a bona fide iPad fan, in conjunction with her Mac looks great. Mark-Up addresses something all of us have wanted: writing on any/all image type documents. They seem to have taken off the gloves in the browser competition with Safari’s recent expansion. Under the hood they have really expanded it dramatically--we're told. The idea of being able to stream NetFlix directly through the browser without using whatever MS software is currently in use sounds like an addition of significant refinement. HealthKit, though clearly in its infancy, directs itself to real-world solutions to real-world problems. I’m definitely for it’s expansion and refinement. I found the cut-away shots the the audience interesting. It looked like a high-school assembly. I know they’re pimping the “youth” and “up to date” aspect of all things Apple, but still doing it well. The idea of merging iPhone, iPad and iMac into one large multi-headed Hydra (or is it Medusa?), is a brilliant way to move iPhone or iPad users into Mac users, but if they can really make it seamless—god bless them! I was surprised when they showed the Android users adaptation to the current OS: only 9% are using the newest software, and over 40% (?) are stuck in software that is over 4 years old. Similarly the stats for using the newest version of Windows, tells you something about how eager to adapt the other companies’ users are: They’re not. On the other hand moving to the newest software for the iPhone/iPad/iMac is becoming less frightening all the time. And expense? Free is always the best number to move the intransigent…

Spotlight has been very useable already, adding the 'net to it just makes it much more sweet.

I thought about that too. When home I can put the iphone on a charger wherever and just use my iPad or Mac to make and receive calls. And with the new 'instant hotspot', why would one need to buy an iPad with cell support? It seems this is all similar to what is being done in many cars these days. My Buick has bluetooth to the iPhone and it is seamless and simple. > > I was surprised when they showed the Android users adaptation to the > current OS: only 9% are using the newest software, and over 40% (?) are > stuck in software that is over 4 years old.

Next thing you'll know is that you'll be able to make and receive phone calls from your apple TV!! :) -- Lloyd

I have my iPad and iPhone on different carriers so that if I'm in an area where one doesn't have a usable connection and the other does, I'm still connected.

I got the impression from the keynote that the hotspot was all done by the phone and the carrier isn't involved. I mean they do the same thing in my Buick now via bluetooth, can't see why it wouldn't work the same. -- Lloyd

Apple included the ability of a carrier (Aka: AT&T) to disable tethering alltogether (when it was not ready for it) and then to sell tethering separatly at a premium as the connection is established to different APN name allowing AT&T to know this is tethering data. However, technically, a disabled tethering would not require disabling of wi-fi hotspot since the wi-fi hotspot is beween local machines. (tethering is what links it to the HSPA/LTE link with carrier). There isn't much clarity on how voice will be billed with LTE. Will it be billed by the minute , UBB free, or will voice be free but as data ?

I personally do not care about finding stuff on the internet. iF i am looking for a recently downloaded submission from BelL Canada, I want to be able to find it on the hard drive.

When I want to find something on the Internet I'll use the web browser's search feature as it was deisnged to do. :-\ > iF i am looking for a recently downloaded submission from BelL Canada, I > want to be able to find it on the hard drive. > > I wish they would then let me right click to choose the app to open it. > > > If spotlight will return all sorts of useless drivel from the internet, > it looses usefulness. > > Having s mall buttons in the spotlight input field might be able to > restrict the search. It's not as if it's even new ... Sherlock under Mac OS 9 (and earlier versions of Mac OS X) was able to search various locations and use plug-ins to add more, such as Amazon. > I cannot understand why Apple insists on claiming translucency is so > great.

Ives has obviously a fetish about stupid translucency ... we saw it in the first iMac and now he's interferring with the software, it's becoming a hideous nuisance (the translucent menubar was bad enough). :-(

I'll be that the find field in Finder windows won't search the internet, so there's that. 2. I'll also bet that "filename:<filenamesnippet>" will work in the new Spotlight search just the way it works now.

No thanks; I don't want web page hits cluttering up my search for a file (and I don't want the further erosion of privacy that is bound to come with this). I wish that Spotlight in Mavericks would tell me where the damn file is rather than letting me just quick-look at it or open it. I usually want to know what folder I lost something in.

You want Find Any File.
http://apps.tempel.org/FindAnyFile/
| Find Any File is a program for Mac OS X that lets you search for files
| on your disks.
|
| Contrary to Spotlight, it does not use a database but instead uses the
| file system driver's fast search operations, where available. This lets
| you search for file properties such as name, dates, size, etc., but not
| for file content (use Spotlight or EasyFind for that).
|
| Find Any File can find files that Spotlight doesn't, e.g. those inside
| bundles and packages and in inside folders that are usually excluded
| from Spotlight search.
|
| Finally, it is quite fast. A search only takes a few seconds on an
| internal hard disk or SSD. Try for yourself!
And, it can also seach with root permission.

That's brain-dead easy already: Just hold down the Command key while clicking a file in the search results. ; ) -- E-mail sent to this address may be devoured by my ravenous SPAM filter.
