I'd say buy it now...

The Intel powerbooks: 2006 to 2007.

Also, they may be more expensive or the same price...

Well there is that pesky NDA and he only told me about it after the fact. I respect that, and don't ask him about anything he's currently working on. 🙄 Of course it has nothing to do with the fear of a team of deadly Apple assault Ninjas (wearing black mock turtlenecks and blue jeans, natch) swooping into my bedroom on a dark night to silence me. 😉

Understood - thanks! 😉 😎

and sent Apple ones at 2.3 GHz and Apple overclocked it to 2.7 GHz...

You can't overclock a Dual 2.7 G5, because its already overclocked. And thats why is so damn hot.

That would be incorrect. The 2.7GHz G5s are rated to run at 2.7GHz, therefore they are not overclocked. The fact that they are hot is irrelevant. I'm sorry, I don't mean to pick on you, but people misused the term overclocked during the G4 years as well, and still seem to.

Do you have a link to support your theory?
