Thanks to Leopard and Time Machine, I can watch the MWSF keynote right now! (Good job, Neil)

It’s almost like the real keynote.

Not sure which is more fascinating: that people go through this much trouble to fake a keynote in such meticulous detail, or that Neil actually came up with a result that is reasonably believable.

Leopard + Time Machine = MWSF 08 Keynote

Neil Pomerleau does a great job of predicting the MWSF 08 keynote that takes place a week from this Tuesday. Instead of a bulleted list of predictions, he wrote what Steve will say and how he’ll probably say it, complete with photos from the event. His predictions are pretty sound, and while I’m not entirely convinced we’ll see a subnotebook or tablet, the level and credibility of the rumor is at about the same as iPhone rumors were last year the weeks prior to the keynote.

Keynote Predictions From Neil Pomerleau

Pretty good predictions. The doctored keynote screenshots are well done, too.

I also got some presence on the web by being in the keynote line. I’ve spotted myself on the galleries of two major Apple websites, Mac Rumors and TUAW.

On Mac Rumors, there was a post explaining that the keynote was about to start, and there were three pictures. In the middle picture of the keynote line, I can be seen with my friends Edwin and Ryan. Ryan, who let me borrow his wireless 3G card, is in the cowboy hay. Click here to see the original picture on Mac Rumors, and the version below shows where we are…

On TUAW, you could see me in one of their galleries, although I wasn’t facing the camera. Click here to see the original picture on TUAW, and the version below shows me. I’m the one wearing the orange backpack…
