So I just read this moments ago.

Apple will be livestreaming its event today to users of its own devices

Nice.

I recall when we could still watch these live once upon a LONG time ago. In fact, I can recall the apt I was in at the time, and the computer I was using (iNdigo iMac). WIll be fun to watch these live all over again.

Looking fwd.

Time to save up for a refresh. I bet the Refurb store will get some stock! As will the Classifieds.

H!

The Apple Store is down as well as iCloud's web-iWork apps.

Exciting stuff for us Apple geeks!
