The Verge has a full breakdown of what happened, but here’s the highlights:
- OS X Mavericks was given a release date and price: Yesterday and FREE.
- Updates were shown to the iOS and OS X versions of the iWork and iLife suites – released yesterday, again, for free.
- Retina MacBook Pros got a bump, with the vaunted Haswell processor – and they now look to be replacing the standard MacBook Pro.
- The Mac Pro was priced and dated – starting at $2999, you should see it in December.
- Finally, the bit everyone was hoping for – iPad Updates. Â The standard 9.7″ iPad now has a Mini-styled body and is called the iPad Air, and the iPad Mini has been updated with a Retina screen. Expect them in November.
In general, here’s how you should look at these announcements: if you have something that works – and is being supported with updates – keep it. If you don’t, here’s your new toy.
