jeez, guys. way to be friendly and helpful, as opposed to snarky and prickish. he asked two simple questions, why not just answer them instead of being obtuse while insulting his intelligence? :confused:

amen
 
The guy is new so maybe he means 'desktop' when he says G5. In that case yes the new desktops (MacPros) are close to being released.

Well, someone else who has not been reading the forums or listened to keynotes.
The Xbox is a toy. Made by the Evil Empire :D
The processor roadmap of Intel at the moment is the best one in the business. They get the most performance per watt which is important since Macs have a very small form factor.

It's that easy.
 
Who cares about the G5? I'd like to know if the Mac Pro will have a 68000 in it. Think of all that power! A pair of 8" floppies and an MFM hard drive would be nice as well.

if a powerpc chip is good enough to be in a xbox 360 its good enough for me, i bought a mac to run OS X not windoze
An Xbox 360 is not a full blown desktop computer is it now? And if you bought a Mac for OS X, then just don't install Windows. It's that easy.
 
:) funniest thread i've read since i joined. possibly made funnier by the fact that i just fell off my chair because i thought a ladybird that flew iunto my room was a dozy horrible wasp when i was typing this.

may be the op is one of those mythical people who are slaves to evil giants (sorry, big coporate companies) and is working like 18 hours day! so we should really congradulate him for getting so far into the forum! or may be this was all a spoof...

anyway funny.
