| (I almost forgot the widescreen iPod, so I added it shortly afterwards and added my vote to it while editing the vote. That's why there's one vote without name there.)

| iLife '07, Mac Pro 2 x 4-cores ("8-core" is a misnomer IMO, but whatever....unless there's something I'm missing regarding Intel's CPU roadmap), and the official release of the "iTV" product. Still missing the Reality Distortion Field option, but that would be a given I guess.

| 30th anniversary machine would be great (a 30" iMac, of course). But I don't expect it anymore.

| As we all know, "The First Thirty Years Were Just The Beginning". Actually, it wouldn't be a bad idea to release a few "30th Anniversary" models, the topmost of which are so ridiculously over-specced that you'd have to sell one of your Ferrarris to buy one. It would create buzz and conversation, and if it were backed up by really impressive "flagship" models with more reasonable pricetags, they could sell really well.

| Remember the 20th Anniversary Mac. Out of most people's price range, it was a gorgeous machine. Of course, it was outdated technology the moment it shipped, basically (a Performa in nice clothing).  But hey! It was used in a Batman movie! How great is that!

I've heard people saying that the 4-core chips are NOT 4-core chips, but in fact 2 2-core chips...on one chip. Does that even make sense?! I feel like such a non-geek...  But ANYWAY.... I expect iLife '07, and I expect the "iTV", or at least an actual name for it. Those are no-brainers. Of course I expect a big preview of Leopard and ship date (probably in a few months). It's been a while since they introduced new pro hardware at Macworld, hasn't it? Then again, with Intel now driving Apple's update schedule (to a degree), I guess they have the choice to either release it now with great fanfare, release it a bit later with no fanfare, or release it a few months after their competitors at the next major trade show. Not sure what I expect there. I really don't expect many surprises. Maybe it's because I'm out of touch with the Mac rumor mill (oh, how I miss As the Apple Turns...).
