It’s a sad day.  Apple has announced that it is severing ties with the Macworld Expo that has become synonymous with hot new Apple products.  The first two weeks of the new year were always the most exciting for me.  Spending my time on Mac Rumors, trying to speculate what fantastic new product was being released.  I would even go so far as to follow live Twitter feeds announcing what Mr. Jobs had just delivered to the world.

I have a long history with Apple and its products.  From my first Mac LC, to the latest dual quad-core Mac Pro, the Apple brand has been a part of me.  One of the highlights of my life was having our wedding shot by Apple and then subsequently shown by Steve Jobs in the 2005 keynote.  For a geek like me, it doesn’t get any better.  

While I understand the concept behind moving away from the “Steve Jobs Show”, I will miss the excitement and anticipation of everything that Macworld brings.

Me, my Wife, and Steve Jobs.  Does life get any better?
