Mac Mania

Do you use a Mac computer? You may not know it, but Apple computers and software have a whole conference all to themselves called MacWorld, and for over a decade, the Apple CEO Steve Jobs has been giving a keynote speech there.

However, this year marks the end of an era. Not only will Steve Jobs not be delivering the keynote tomorrow morning, but this will also be the last year Apple will even participate in the expo. That makes some people want to be extra sure they get to see the keynote – like 14-year-old Nicholas Lensander.

Lensander was the first person in line, arriving at the Moscone Center at 6:30 a.m. today to make sure he got to see the keynote that wouldn’t take place until over 24 hours later. He says it’s worth it though. “It’s a little frustrating [that Steve Jobs won’t be giving the keynote], but this is their last time at the show, so I think they have to go out with a bang.” He hopes to see something that nobody has ever thought of before.
