Apple's secrecy about pending announcements is matched only by the interest they provoke among Mac watchers; a half-sober assessment of the prevailing buzz is always entertaining - and frequently revealing. Experience has taught me caution when holding forth publicly about Apple's plans, but I find that where there's substantial consensus in the Mac community, a new product announcement is usually behind it.
