When purchasing equipment without subsidies also get software packages – iWork for Mac and iLife for iOS devices.

“OS X and iWork software package, designed to compete with Excel and Word, will be offered to customers for free.”
Apple decided to also take care of members fixed because it is part of his philosophy presented by Tim Cook:
“Our competitors are different. Lost. Now they’re trying to change the tablet PC and tablet PC. Who knows what they come up tomorrow. “
Reuter quotes from the Carolina Milanesi from Gartner agency:
“I think the iPad will compete with Air Surface Pro and not tacky tablet with Android”.
Time notes that Apple spent a lot of time on the presentation software.
“iWork (Pages, Numbers, Keynote) and iLife (iPhoto, iMovie, and GarageBand) will be available free of charge on the purchase of the iOS device or computer. Apple wants to prove that the iPad can be a creative device. “
portal Zdnet stated that the decision to release the latest version of the software free of charge is significant:
“They are now in the same position as Microsoft offers upgrade to version 8.1 free of charge or a Google Chrome OS is constantly updated.”
According to the magazine
no fee for the software is also motivated by other considerations:
“Apple believes that when customers will change to the latest, free version of the software will be more loyal.”
is worth noting that a change in the image of the desktop system. Apple ends with cats in the name – the new system is called simply Mavericks and its logo instead of a lion or leopard is a symbol X.
Editors Cnet notes that Apple has decided to upgrade the largest in the history of iWork. One of the many new package is a link to the service iCloud – the individual works can be accessed by multiple people at the same time.

Trade press as much attention is given to larger families iPads. Apple’s latest product is a model called the Air. And it was he who, understandably, aroused the most interest. Service Cnet has already published a preliminary review unit.
“Thinner, lighter, with a screen size of 9.7-inch iPad with Retina display Air introduces several enhancements to the best-selling tablet. But not as much as one might wish or expect from leaks. For example, Apple does not mention anything about the gold version of the device, known for its iPhone 5S. There also do not know the function of an Apple ID. Moreover, after the introduction of the new model differences between iPad and iPad mini are almost unnoticeable unless the price – the mini is $ 100 cheaper.
Portal The Verge published wideorecenzj? iPad Air. Impressions? Extremely lightweight and fast.
“Much faster than iPad 4″.

If you are expecting a much improved camera you can feel the disappointment. It still camera with a resolution of five megapixels in the back and 1.2 megapixel front. For comparison, the iPad has a camera doing 5S pictures with a resolution of 8 megapixels.
Despite rumors iPad will be available in gold. Model Air will be available in silver and white version, and gray-black.
CPU performance is eight times greater than that of the first iPad and layout as many as 72 times greater.
Spidersweb says Apple’s powerful presentation entitled:
“This is the last meeting, which the world will forgive Apple”
What
blame the Cupertino giant
No surprise – so you could probably describe briefly how the present is new – wait, wait, so after I started my summary of Apple’s conference on September 10 this year, when shown the new iPhones.
still reading:
Next year will be for Apple and Tim Cook is crucial. Next year, no one will forgive Apple’owi only new iPhones and iPads. Apple will have to introduce a new category of products or totally change the existing product offering. Let it be watches, televisions, or even a refrigerator. Next year, Apple has no choice – it must begin to show new, otherwise fewer and fewer people will fall for a slick PR around the new iPads, even if the name it mini Air.
If I had to find a most positive result of today’s Apple conference, it would be just that the last of the types of events that the world will forgive Apple’owi. I believe that Tim Cook also aware of this fact.
Some media reported the lack of any mention of Apple TV.
Forbes writes about at Apple’s rather cool:
“Today’s presentation Apple could disappoint fans who were hoping to see at the end of the AppleTV. The Cupertino company has long been in talks for a license, but according to some sources, the introduction of services is delayed. “
Forbes also relies on information the Wall Street Journal, according to which its own set of TV reception (probably online) named Cinnamon is present Amazon.
Lack
TV from Apple is also disappointed PCMag. And cuts off a lot of speculation:
“The problem is that the rumors about the Apple TV are wrong. Apple does not make any HDTV. If anything will launch a product is the updated version of Apple TV – boxes that connect to your own HDTV. There will be no 55 or 65 inch screen, which would look like an iMac or Apple Cinema Display “.
Bloomberg then inform (citing sources originating in Japan), that next year Apple will launch a 65 inch signed its own brand.
Apple announced yesterday
other products. The emergence of a new Mac or MacBook goes rather unnoticed and even though a lot going on here. He notes that the portal Macrumors
“The new Mac Pro is completely and radically redesigned workstation. Classic solid presented in 2003, is replaced by a cylinder whose main design feature is the core of the thermal. Around it are placed all the components to best remove the heat “.
Apple decided to redesign your desktop computer because the processor will go to the significant power that is generating a lot of heat.
“The Mac Pro will find the latest Intel Ivy Bridge E Xeon processors (up to 12 cores), dual GPU AMD EirePro, six two Thunderbolt ports, hard working on the PCIe link with ECC memory, USB 3.0 and faster Wi-Fi system. “

as the presentation of Apple reacted to Wall Street? Investors have mixed feelings. Share hesitated and finally fell slightly. It is not yet clear why.
disappointment or meet expectations?
For some conference
Apple did not bring anything unexpected. Another tablet, another system, improved computers. It begins with the Cupertino giant, however, perceive positively. It is true that we did not see spectacular new but if the competition is better in this aspect? In fact, when it comes to mobile device market happens a lot. However, neither company is able to meet customer expectations aroused. And they are awake enough to not arouse enthusiasm stunning ideas or Google (virtual assistant in Moto X listens without interruption voice commands, Google Glass), or new Samsung (Galaxy Gear smart watch with Android). Sensation does not raise a zoom screen smartphone (Galaxy Note III is the latest models of Nokia), Microsoft’s next generation tablet.
therefore not expect from Apple sensational news, because when they appear (such as a completely redesigned Mac Pro), some spinning head that after a “bad idea”. Apple unveiled yesterday as a company with a vision. To me it is still in great shape.
