When I think of Steve Jobs, feelings of wonder and absolute awe rush over me. Jobs is without a doubt, the most iconoclastic creative mind of the modern age. If that makes me a fanboy, so be it. If liking Apple Inc. products makes me a fanboy, I’m fine with that too. Jobs is in [...]

In an odd move for a company usually so laser-focused on 100% secrecy, Apple today issued a press release to tell the world that Steve Jobs would be announcing a slew of new products at the firm’s upcoming Worldwide Developer Conference (WWDC) event next week in San Francisco.

Hot on the heels of Google’s earnings call at the beginning of the week, today was Apple’s turn to publish their figures and, surprise surprise, they beat expectations and sold a whole load of bushed aluminium to mobs of doe-eyed consumers.
