Extract: "The Power Mac G5 continues to deliver the ultimate performance for our most advanced customers running bandwidth- and compute-intensive applications," said Philip Schiller, Apple's senior vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing. "With dual 2.7 GHz 64-bit G5 processors, dual 1.35 GHz front side buses, ATI Radeon 9650 graphics, 16X SuperDrive with double-layer support and Mac OS X Tiger, the new Power Mac G5 is the most powerful and advanced Mac we have ever made."
 
I'd like to see them change the Powerbook screen to say 'shipping with OS X Tiger', so I can order one without worrying about getting Panther!

This thread seems to have been taken over by the Met. Office!

Any more reports?

For those of you with "expensive carpets", the 2,7GHz is still water cooled!

haha@ that's great! and they die in 2 years, just like the 2.5's.

are the 2.3 water cooled?
 
For me the biggest news was the drop of the 23" display price to 1299 in the educational store. Anyone know what the educational price was before? I'm sure it was more but forget how much more. I was on the fence between getting a dual head system or a single 30" display, but the price drop has sealed the deal for me.
