Reports: iBook
Demo Days Coming ! and More... (1999) According to
Apple's
Demo Days site at
least 13 Apple Demo Days are being planned thru-out
the Fall/Holiday season. While no specific product plans
have yet been announced, iBook-User expects that Apple Demo
Days will cover the iBook, the New G4's, Airport, OS 9 and
the expected Revised iMac's. When
does it start ? We
Estimate Demo Days will start about 9/24 and end
around 12/12 that would make 12 weekends. Room for about a
Demo Day weekend every other week. There is also a Rumor
floating about that CompUSA and Sears will have rotating
weekends for the Demo Days. If you have any info
Email
us! How
Do I sign Up ? See our Report:
Chance
to Win an iBook Doing Demo Days Below we explain
how we arrived at our Estimate's for the following demo
product dates: iBook-
Apple/Marketsource has to allow at least 1 week for sign
up's and 1 week receiving Mailed forms back
to Marketsource and then, sending out promotional
materials to the volunteers who signed up.(Last year some
folks didn't receive their iMac materials in time or at
all! Despite having 3 months to prepare.)
*An
early 9/18 Demo Day is a Remote
possibility. G4's-
G4 Demo Day probably will take place as soon as at least
2 model's are available to display like the 400 MHz &
450 Mhz. The big question is, will Apple show the 400 if
either of the Sawtooth models 450 MHz or 500 MHz aren't
ready ? (If you were Apple wouldn't you want show off
your Pentium-crusher?) Airport-
We think it's possible that the Revolutionary Airport
could have it's own Demo Day (as soon as
Apple gets FCC approval) or will be at least combined
with another product on a second weekend piggybacking on
another product. (Think of someone doing a demo playing
Unreal on an iBook in front of CompUSA against a player
in the Apple Store in back! Cool!) OS
9- OS 9 is
expected to ship* sometime in Mid to late Oct. We think
it will be out by Oct 31 at the latest. *As
long as Apple settles a OS 9 name dispute
quickly. iMac's-
Code named C2/Kilei and rumored to feature a 17"
screen, DVD, airport slot, dual firewire, G4/350 Mhz and
everything else in the kitchen sink ;) General
Apple Demo Day-
The Final one or two Demo Day's in general will cover all
the incredible New Products from Apple that will come out
over the last 4 months of the year.

Announcement in France on the 15th, most feel it
