And not only will we find the recipe, we think the Apple brand is great for this. * We are executing on this stuff today. Nine months from having a strategy, and we're basically shipping all of it -- iDVD will ship early next month. iApps know all about the devices. But a thought occurred to us late last year -- the devices don't know anything about the iApps. There's never been a device built to take advantage... what if there was? And we decided to do it. The field we chose was music. Why music? Well, we love music. and it's always good to do something you love. * Jobs demos iMovie -- showed clips of baby videos * iDVD2 shipping early November * Jobs then showed a four-piece pie chart: video (iMovie 2), Music (iTunes), DVD (iDVD), and Photo * Let's start with the digital hub. This is a strategy we announced in January 2001. We believe Mac can become the center of your digital lifestyle. In other words, we're being surrounded by these amazing digital devices these days. * We have something really stunning for you today -- we have a lot of things going on. * Steve Jobs comes onstage: -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
