Is the Anticipation Always Better? September 9, 2008

Today was a sad day, Ok, not really that sad… Not like seriously sad, just kinda a little sad! Over the last few weeks I’ve been anticipating two things. They may be dorky, but it’s true, I’ve been looking forward to them.

The first, is a new MacBook Pro from Apple. I’m in the market for an Apple laptop. As a designer, it’d be really nice to have a Mac at home. Since it’s been widely rumored that there may be new ones coming this fall, I’m waiting before buying. Today they announced all sorts of new things including new iPod Nano’s, new iPod Touch’s, new iTunes, but no new MacBooks. Oh well, I guess I still have a bit more to save anyway.

The second, is an upcoming content management system that a lot of web professionals are into called Expression Engine 2.0. The company producing it has been saying all along that it will be out the summer of 2008. Well, it’s just about Fall now, and they finally announced that it has been officially delayed. Sadness.

So there you have it. Geeky stuff, but it’s part of my job as a web designer. What can you do?

Did you think that they would announce new Mac laptops at an event called “Let’s Rock”? This event seemed to focus on all things music… oh yeah and making the iPhone not crash any more.

Logically I didn’t think so… I just hoped so!
