I have no idea and I would hope not. I'm pretty curious as of what Apple wants to use to replace the current quad-G5 line which is really fast. For now, AMD64 X2 is still the clear winner compared to everyone else, but who knows what the landscape will look like by the end of 2006 ... (and Steve has always an ace up his sleeve ;)).
