[edit] One More Thing

Although I stand behind every word of my description as accurate and precise, I suspect and accept that it probably contains one or more style violations and will need to be rewritten. Frankie

Seriously needs a rewrite, there is some blatant POV in there, and some inaccurate stuff. Shaun Eccles-Smith 09:47, 23 June 2006 (UTC).

Yes, but the paragraph "If a Stevenote fails to include 'One more thing', the media usually considers it to be a major disappointment and a reason for Apple's stock price to drop." is funny enough that I won't be the one to rewrite it :-) Peter S. 19:02, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Intel Transition

I don't believe the the Intel Transition was a One More Thing. As I recall, prior to his keynote at WWDC 2005, there were many rumors swirling about that Apple was going to being using Intel processors. Deliberately leaked I believe, because early in the keynote a slide was presented that read "It's True" with the 'e' lowered as in Intel's logo. The remainder of the keynote discussed the transition. However towards the end of the keynote Steve did reveal that the presentation had been running on a transition machine. --Somegeekintn 15:40, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "one more thing"

Totally wrong. The intel transition was the main focus of the 2005 WWDC speech, and the ipod shuffle, not the video, was the one used in a previous keynote.

Yeah, that's how I remember last year's WWDC. Although the revelation that the keynote demo machine was a transition machine could possibly be counted as a "One More Thing" though I don't believe that exact phrase was used. --Somegeekintn 15:49, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Expansion plan

Here's a suggestion how the article could be expanded:

  1. Intro
  2. Style (Presentation style, typical elements and their sequence including "one more thing" etc.)
  3. List of Stevenotes (and what was introduced)
  4. Cultural impact (if needed)
  5. Trivia (if needed)
  6. See also
  7. External links

Comments? Anybody against it? Peter S. 19:19, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Things added

Ok, I have Just expanded the article, with a trivia section and a keynotes list, but it needs to be expanded a little bit more.Gumbos 14:36, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

  1. Trivia section-Ready to expand
  2. Keynotes List-Ready to expand

[edit] Trivia section

I checked with Gumbos, and apparently the trivia section is accurate, however the grammar doesn't seem to be up to par. I tried rewriting it but I don't actually know what Steve Jobs said. Here is what I came up with:

During the 1997 keynote, Steve Jobs announced that Internet Explorer would be the default browser on Macintoshes. However, his announcement was met with booing and even some audience members yelling, "no!". To which Jobs replied, "...".

This became repetitive, so I've copyedited it: hope it's clear and correct. ..dave souza, talk 13:56, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

its hard to believe but it did happened in 97... But I think it would be good to actually see the entier presentation of the keynote for reference, is kind of funny if you really play close attention to the internet explorer part of the keynote...Gumbos 02:30, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, it is an interesting watch, that's for sure. It can be found on Youtube or Google Video. -/- Warren 03:36, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WWDC?

I am kind of confused, is WWDC the same as the macworld keynotes?Gumbos 12:08, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

This is where Wikipediad comes in handy: Macworld Conference & Expo versus Worldwide Developers Conference --Somegeekintn 15:04, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
