Ever wondered what powers the audio and video production for The Grammys, one of the biggest music awards ceremonies around?
Is it Windows? Nope, it’s not a crash and burn show!
Is Linux arriving in a Limo? No show!
Yes, you guessed it, it’s all Mac based, as a very interesting article over at MacWorld UK points out.
As an avid video and audio geek I’d love to get a look at the rig and play with some of the gear!

As you may have heard in the Apple blogosphere there was a Keynote yesterday done by someone called Steve. Steve told us some very exiting things about Apple and their new (th)inovations and updates and although we have two (both LIVE and Studio) shows all about them in which we will be discussing our views and you can share yours I thought I would give you a quick rundown of the keynote’s announcements.
Well If you have been in the hype of the MacWorld keynote at all and love it as much as me then you will be well aware of all the rumours flying around and I’m sure if you can’t be there and you are off work or School you will be watching the updates from all the sites that will be liveblogging the event. (Look out for a list soon).
Why not make this experience more fun with Keynote bingo. If you have never played before its as the name suggests. Playing bingo with what Steve says. What products he may release and catch-phrases such as “BOOM!” So play along if you want see what happens.For more information check out this site.

We are excited about creating a vibrant third party developer community around the iPhone and enabling hundreds of new applications for our users.
