dual-core PowerMacs (2x2 CPU), new G4 Powerbooks and a G5 Mac mini?

http://www.engadget.com/entry/1234000457054732/

Quote:
A G5 Mac mini would sure make a mighty mini, and that’s what the word on the street predicts, along with the advent of dual-core G5 PowerMacs and a G4 Powerbook bump to be unveiled at the September 20 Apple Expo 2005 in Paris. Analyst Mark Stahlman of Caris & Co. reports they believe the new Powerbook line will see 2GHz speeds and may add high-definition screens (it is the Year of HD, after all). The dual-core PowerMacs are expected to use IBM’s 970 PPC processor and likely come in dual-processor configurations, making 4x CPU Macs or “dual dual” machines. If all this comes to pass, at least Apple will be ringing out its partnership with IBM in style.

im not sure. they havent really said anything solid. i would think they would get at least 3-4 more revisions out of the G5s. could be the powerbooks will go centrino first before powermac/imac/mac mini go intel. i'm sure apple is sick of dealing w/ motorola.

PowerPC is made by IBM. Apple hasn't used Motorola for a while.
