[bunny suit, which to FReepers brings Kerry to mind, was this]

1:07 PM - "The biggest news this year, of course, is we announced that we were going to shift to using Intel processors in Macs.  We announced that by June of '06 we would be shipping ... "
1:09 PM - "I wanted to give you an update today - how are we doing?"
1:10 PM - An Intel clean-room-suit guy walks out of a cloud of smog with a 12" silicon wafer and says, "Steve I want to report that Intel's ready. "  Takes off his his helmet -- it's Paul Otellini Intel CEO.
1:10 PM - Steve: "Well, I can report that Apple's ready too"
1:11 PM - "We've worked nights, weekends to make this happen in record time. [to Paul] I want to thank you..."
1:12 PM - Boilerplate keynote act here except for when Paul quotes Bob Noyes, the forgotten Intel cofounder, "Don't be encumbered by history." They shake hands. We've got the camera locked and loaded. 
1:12 PM -  "So ... today we are gonna roll out the first Mac with an Intel processor."
1:13 PM -  "Without any more fanfare, it is the iMac" It looks the same as it does now.
