MacWorld to Follow Floppy Disk Into Extinction [View article]
One might look upon the series of "Special Event" webcasts/keynotes this past year as a test run to see how product rollouts do when they are not bunched together in January (AFTER the biggest shopping period of the year is over).
I've thought for years that Apple was nuts to announce new products in January -- instead of just before Thanksgiving. I'm glad to see them making some changes to do away with that practice. I'm sure it was a problem within Apple to target product rollouts to a specific extravaganza in January.
Much better to serve the food as soon as the cooking is done, rather than trying to artificially target a predefined serving time.
