Yes the Microsoft moment was a bit of a surprise. I notice he conformed, as did most presenters, to the strict U.S. Tech Company dress-code, of casual shirt hanging outside jeans. Makes you wonder what they wear to make the weekend feel different, pressed shirt and tie for lawn mowing?
The big new iPad looks pretty amazing. The slide showing how graphics performance has evolved, was it 160 fold since iPad 1 ? I've played with code that exercises the graphics processors on early iPads and found they could handle all I threw at them so if this one is 160 fold better then... Wow.
The new Apple TV looked interesting too. And maybe a bit more likely to be priced within reach of my actual pocket money. At least if I save up for a few weeks.
