Struts and Stuff at Apple Show
By DAVID POGUE

YOU can have your Springsteen concert, your big Vegas magic show, your East River fireworks. For the true-blue Macintosh fan, they pale next to the greatest show on earth: the keynote speech at the annual Macworld Expo in New York.

Yesterday Apple's chief executive, Steven P. Jobs, took the stage at the Javits Center, as he does each summer, to unveil Apple's latest work. But to call his presentation a speech would be like calling Noah's flood a puddle. In his reality-distortion field, every new machine is a revolution, every new program is a revelation — and for two blissful hours, Microsoft and its 95 percent market share don't exist.

Like all computer trade shows lately, however, this one is smaller than usual. Apple had no completely new machine to unveil, and the audience at the keynote was less frenzied than usual. Still, there was plenty to make computer fans happy, or at least enough to get them talking, from new portable music players to software for keeping multiple gadgets in sync.
