    I thought they said Intel, and a complete transition to all their 
computers running Intel by 2007.  Have you guys read up on the AMD Opterons?  
Very 
comparable to the G5.  neither has any clear superiority over the other, but 
Photoshop benchmarked faster with the Opteron.
    Point being, with AMD and IBM creating such awesome processors, why has 
Apple decided to go with Intel?  Their processors just dont seem to compare.  
Though 10 years down the road I know of some pretty insane technology Intel is 
working on.
