In the cheap seats for Jobs' keynote | News.blog | CNET News.com: "Greetings from the only media person voluntarily occupying the spillover room for Steve Jobs' Macworld keynote address. (It has a Wi-Fi connection, and CNET News.com has a fondness for real-time news.)
Faced with an unusually large press turnout for this year's shindig, Apple Computer exiled most of the second-string media--you know, managing editor of the East Kalamazoo Mac User Group newsletter--to a separate room a kilometer or so from where Jobs is talking. There, they get to listen to classics such as 'Papa Was a Rolling Stone' before watching the Apple CEO bluster live on a big-screen TV. "
