WWDC 2007 banners
Apple is steadily preparing to kick off its World Wide Developer's Conference (WWDC) at San Francisco's Moscone Center on Monday, June 11th. Workers have already produced a giant white Apple logo on the side of the convention center, and inside banners reveal a space-like theme for Leopard. Slogans such as "Expand your universe" and "Rocket fuel for your apps" accompany welcome messages that will greet attendees starting early next week. Apple chief Steve Jobs is scheduled to offer a keynote address beginning at 10:00 a.m. on Monday, and has promised to offer developers attending the conference a feature-complete test version of Leopard.

If you use a lens hood, or anything that will shade your camera lens all the way around, you won't have that annoying glare off of the glass when looking in from outside. It's a simple, cheap trick that would make for much better detail in your photos. Perhaps a little work in Photoshop/Aperture/iPhoto would be nice to see also.
There's no reason to skimp on a few extra minutes of touch up, especially when all these ads give you the funds.

Lens hood wont work

Lens hoods wont work. These reflections are not from internal reflections of the lens, they are off of the glass. You need a polarization filter or move closer to the window to not have the reflection...

It IS very exciting knowing I will be there in a few days, standing in front of a 25 foot cosmic 'X' -- sounds like it could be a very 2001 moment...

I can asure Rocket fuel for Mac Pro Quad... but for a Macbook, I don't know... I used a Quad last week and let me tell you that beast it's FAST already, Leopard will be Rocket Fast in that machine but not on all of them... That's why I think....
