Steve said "64-bit Cocoa", but there was no mention of "64-bit
Carbon".


Here's a before and after of the relevant slide:

Spot the difference...

Can we assume this was not an accidental omission?

This is a pretty major change from last year - Carbon applications will now always be 32-bit?

Although there will be no real benefit to 64-bit for most applications, in marketing terms it will quickly become the new Universal.
