dammit why won't the US store go down! If it does go down I'm getting back up in two hrs. We already have the Aex listed so if the US goes offline it's for new hardware.
US Store doesn't usually go down until around 8-15 - 8-30 eastern time which isn't for another 10 mins.

Just be patient. NEW G5's will be here today!!!

exactly what was being said yesterday, i'm doubtful but only interested in displays anyway
 
Yes, it sure is. I will have money in about 45 days. Can't wait to see what it is I'll be buying. My last desktop (iMac) was a 400MHz G3. My current laptop is the 12" PB 1GHz. Therefore, regardless of whether G5's hit 3GHz, a dual 2.5 or 2.6 is going to be stupid-fast, not only in comparison to those machines, but to all of my friends PCs, which are currently anywhere from 1.5-2.6GHz themselves. :)
 
looks like the new G5's are on their way. Question is are they going to update the Displays at the same time or wait until WWDC?

I hope they update them now. The more hardware Apple gets out the way before WWDC the more they get to show Tiger off. I really do think Tiger is going to blow some peoples minds. I have high hopes.

Bring on the new Displays and Powermacs. Next week give us new iMacs and then wow us with the software to run on these magnificent machines.

I doubt the G5 iMac will be announced until WWDC as this will be a complete redesign. Also next week Apple are going to announce International iTunes Music Store.

The rumor is that the new displays will only have DVI and not ADC, if that is the case it would appear logical that the new G5 powermacs will only have a DVI output, and hence would make sense to announce the displays at the same time. Time will tell I guess....
 
I concur!
