The French dealer site is down.
The link's dead now.
There was a french site that posted some pretty detailed specs around the time of a Macworld event in the past year or so, I can't remember which macworld it was near but it had model numbers and everything. I read about it on here I'm sure but I didn't bookmark the link to it.
I'm guessing it's the same company that's doing it now, the specs we're way off if I remember right, I also remember another time where a similar thing happened and the specs we're dead on.
I think if the specs are super detailed, model numbers and everything, it seems quite reasonable that they could have got the info from an insider at apple, only if it's very close to the expo though. The past few times someone posted the exact specs of up coming models so I'm taking anything I read from now until a few days before the expo as pure rumour and speculation. Specs posted 1 or 2 days before an expo are something that have turned out to be true a few times now though.
here's what I'd like to see anyway:
1Ghz G4, 2Mb L3, 256Mb DDR, ATA100, 60Gb 7200rpm HD, DVD/CDRW combo.
1.4Ghz G4 (maybe only 1.333Ghz), 2Mb L3, 256Mb DDR, ATA100, 80Gb 7200rpm HD, DVD-R/CDRW combo.
1.2Ghz G4 Dual, 2Mb L3, 512Mb DDR, ATA100, 100Gb 7200rpm HD, DVD-R/CDRW combo.
Case redesign with more attention paid to usability than eyecandy, keep the flip down door, add an option to have 2 5 1/4" optical drives, put audio inputs back, give us drive eject buttons, front USB, Firewire and headphone ports.
What I really will see could be a different story.
I'd probably go with the high clock speed G4s being only single CPU models with the top end system using dual medium speed chips like the old 733,867 and dual 800Mhz range. That way all the power isn't given to those who can afford the high end, the mid range model will offer more value for money and the high end model will still toast the others at most tasks under OS X.
