I was under the impression rumor sites had come to the general consensus that G5s would not be released until WWDC (and even then, I'd imagine the high end machine would take a while to ship). This makes good sense to me: if IBM can't get 2GHz 970FX chips to Apple fast enough for the XServe, surely it'll be a good wait before 2.5ers ship in any kind of quantity.

Now look at the recent posts of macosxrumors.com and macosrumors.com : Both chime in with "G5s in the near future". :confused:

My question is: does anyone in the know agree with this prediction, or are the above sites full of it? I know their credibility is on the low side. . .

[edit: fixed 980FX mistake]

I'm not holding my breath. I don't expert any new G5s until Expo Paris, actually.
