Where is Apple? Do you hear them?

Did you discover any new technology at the Macworld?
Except the iOS and some iApp, we haven't seen anything else... Why?
If we consider that Apple gives up gradually the professional market, shall we content ourselves with an iMac or with a Macbook Pro for the music?
