It seems as if June 23rd is the "big day" for the new G5. Stores have apparently received boxes with "do not open until the 23rd" stamped on them. A few images have appeared online, most of which are fake.
Speculation ranges from dual 5GHz machines (yeah, right) to a sub $1k G4 (hmm...). Low end models reported to be available immediately along with a new laptop.
What have y'all heard? Discuss the scuttlebutt...

Yeah, I read the gearslutz and macrumors posts...very, very interesting. The only stinker is the software. For me, its mostly cool because I'm a Logic guy but I need plugs to be ported into OSX. That's the only thing holding me up.
Although, I could get by the next few months with a DP 1.25. That will get me through my next set of productions and mixes. So, I'm thinking this introduction will slam the prices of the dual boots right down...hopefull.
Hope springs eternal...!
Howdy, There's a post on Gearslutz.com about them. Suppose
Howdy,
There's a post on Gearslutz.com about them. Supposedly it's a new enclosure with aluminum sides. There's a drive bay for 5 drives that can be rotated 90 degrees so you can use it as either a desktop or tower. Front FW 800 port, and audio ports. On the back 2 FW 800 ports, 2 USB and 1 USB 2.0, ethernet, ADC, DVI and 4 PCI slots. New keyboard and (get this) a 2 button mouse.
That's a paraphrase of what's posted over there. Sounds nice. Now we just need more software support. :D
