...but I held off just in case something else super-duper came along that I had to have.

So. Think I'll order a Mac Mini instead, so by the time the MacIntels get their act together I'll be looking to upgrade again.

Wonder how/if they'll replace the whole "G..." naming scheme for CPUs?

In other news, here's my suitably whacky conspiracy theory: It's all IBM's fault - they deliberately kept the clock speeds of the G5s low, because this practically forced Apple to buy two of them for each machine :-)
