external monitor and keyboard then. completely syncing two computers is not really an option, and syncing home directories is still really a power user thing (to an extent it shouldn't be).

Yep, that. If you can afford the comparatively pricier Apple monitors, and your Macbook Pro has a Thunderbolt port, you can leave your keyboard/mouse (if not Bluetooth), and other things like external harddrive, printer, etc. plugged into the monitor and only need to plug in the power lead and Thunderbolt cable when at your desk.

Another option is to get or make a stand to hold your laptop higher up. I have my setup like this using a basic monitor connected using a mini-displayport to DVI adapter, so I have a two monitor setup of sorts, but some people just use the laptop monitor screen. (sorry about the mess!)

Where will we be
In an Apple Spaceship somewhere
F5ing across an empty screen

Dropbox will sync folders very well, but literally syncing your whole Harddrive is quite a bit harder, if things like apps and settings need to be included.

thanks for advice guys. I had been thinking of docking my MBP but I dont know whether that setup would be wife friendly enough. On the sync'ing - yeah I guess we ain't there yet, although in a an iOS world it seems increasingly weird to be dealing with different content on computers in the same house. I would like to have the same iTunes and iPhoto libraries on all my workstations.

I think this might be quite a big one today. Apple's been quiet for too long for this just to be three hours of game demos

oh god these guys are *dying* up there

"Next, tagging." Someone yelled "yes!"

eris bueller (lukas), Monday, 10 June 2013 17:23 (ten years ago) link

really curious how tagging works. resource fork?

What's wrong with labels?

If he doesn't get why everyone's cheering for multiple displays, he can't use a second screen.

Guess that's killed TotalFinder then (which has had tabs in Finder for years - works really well).

toby, Monday, 10 June 2013 17:27 (ten years ago) link

is the live stream at http://www.apple.com/apple-events/june-2013/ working for anyone?

caek, Monday, 10 June 2013 17:31 (ten years ago) link

Yeah, was troublesome at first but full-speed now. You need to use Safari, btw

stet, Monday, 10 June 2013 17:34 (ten years ago) link

Keychain sounds interesting, if it will work with iOS as well. And if it's actually as good as Lastpass.

toby, Monday, 10 June 2013 17:42 (ten years ago) link

guessing from 40+ min on OS X that nothing big is coming

Euler, Monday, 10 June 2013 17:42 (ten years ago) link

Flat calendar will do me.

stet, Monday, 10 June 2013 17:43 (ten years ago) link

sleepingbag, Monday, 10 June 2013 17:46 (ten years ago) link

I guessed it was to show the dual-display stuff, but maybe not.

stet, Monday, 10 June 2013 17:47 (ten years ago) link
