iPad & Mac event

This year like last year, Apple is holding a special event in October, and it looks like iPads and Macs are one again on the menu. We're expecting the public release of OS X Yosemite, Apple's next-generation laptop and desktop operating system. We should also see the second-generation iPad Air and retina iPad mini.
Rumor has it we might get a new Mac mini, and maybe — just maybe — the long rumored Retina versions of the MacBook Air and iMac.
If the latter of those rumors are true, new versions of the pro apps, like Final Cut Pro, could be along for the ride, as well as updates to Numbers, Pages, Keynote, GarageBand, and iMovie as well.
Less likely, but never-say-never, speculation has included a 13-inch iPad Pro and revamped Apple TV.
