What I was alluding to is that we will not likely see a G5 in a

Who cares?

Hey, I'm on your side, man! I guess I should've said "not bloody likely" ;-)

There's no way we'd ever see a G5 in a Powerbook. That was
obvious right from the start. What we need for Powerbooks is to break
the G4 bus barrier... and the Pentium M does that with its 533 MHz bus,
but the MPC8641 does it BETTER with its pair of 677 MHz memory ports.

-- or how 'bout the MPC8641D in desktops? Yeah, that's a screamer, but then Apple would be back to PPC, and perhaps those delivery problems with it, no?

I mean, I wonder why they didn't go with that before?

Didn't it come from a Bill Mensch idea (System on a Chip)?

All the best,
Ken N.
