This morning I saw a link on a Yahoo news section of my home page that stated that Steve Jobs would not be going to Macworld this year. And Apple will not attend Macworld in 2010 even if there is one.
According to my own Macworld info, my Expo pass states that Macworld 2010 will be January 4-8. Yes, I am still going to Macworld 2009. This will be my 3rd. Even if Apple does not attend in 2010 I would consider going depending on hoe Apple tech develops through 2009.
When I first saw the story about Apple and Macworld I googled the story for more news from different perspectives. There was only one story at 5 pm. Now at 8:45 pm there are 638 links to stories.
When trying to update my system software through Software Update to Mac OS X 10.5.6 I ran into a small snag. After downloading the update (190 MB) I did the required restart. During the install my Mac stalled on “Configuring Installation”. After about 15 minutes I gave up.
After a hard restart I checked MacFixIt for any suggestions. I downloaded the combo update directly from Apple (668 MB). Install of the Mac OS X 10.5.6 update work as expected.
