IDF and the new Mac notebooks

ZDnet news provides this information:

The Intel Developer Forum makes it clear what Apple’s new notebooks - which I (Robin Harris) predict will be announced Tuesday, September 16 - will offer. Will it be worth the wait? If longer battery life and higher performance are important to you - yes.

And if you weren’t waiting? The new designs and features may make you rethink your allegiance to Windows - as so many already have.

IDF tells us a lot
So what’s coming? Here’s what the Storage Bits crystal ball reveals:
* Quad cores.
* Switchable graphics.
* WiMax.
* Solid-state disks.
* Larger memory capacity.
* RGB LED backlight.
* No internal optical drives.
* Blu-ray support.
* 64 bit hardware -
* A glass trackpad the size of …
* Pervasive power management.

But what will they look like?

Apple has lots of other technology that it can incorporate to create a real geewhiz experience. No one in the industry does it better. Whatever they do there will be some hits and some misses but the image of their design leadership will continue.

The Storage Bits take….

Apple’s notebook team has been working on these products for years. Their tight HW and SW integration coupled with Microsoft’s long development cycles means that Apple will be well positioned to take market share.

Apple: “Let’s Rock” on September 9

According to Jason O'Grady at zdnet:
Apple has sent out media invitations for a special event next week.

An invitation for the Sept. 9 event in San Francisco, sent to media today, is entitled “Let’s Rock” and shows a silhouetted dancer holding an iPod, Apple’s music and video player.

The event will be held at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Fransico, CA at 10 am PT on Tuesday, 9 September 2008 according to the invite.
