WWDC 2006 banner

Our good friends at Engadget came across this picture of a 2006 WWDC banner in Moscone Center (that' where WWDC takes place in sunny SF). So, what does this banner tell us? Well, that thing that looks like a G5 tower probably contains an Intel chip (I assume) which might be 64 bit (hence the 64 bit logo). We can also see the subtle leopard print on the OS X disc, which isn't as obnoxious as I thought it might me.
Check out the Engadget post for more pictures and share your thoughts in the comments.

Guys, this brushed metal "laptop" on the right side... aren't the speakers bit too narrow? And also Dock ends quite close to the display edge, similar to MacBook...Is it just image distortion?

There is NOTHING new on this
As other photos show, this is the welcome poster; Apple usually keeps their new products on other posters under black curtains until after the keynote. so this wouldn't even be the place to announce new products since everyone walking in to the keynote would see this beforehand...
Paul if you did take the picture, maybe next time you could keep your reflection off of the window so we can see it a little better, thanx.

I took this picture, and I told you about it in the comments of yesterday's story about the iChat Mobile.

YES!! - APPLE IS INTRODUCING "iHammer"!!!!
That Quartz icon made me think of Quartz 2D Extreme. Would be nice if it finally was ready.
