Pretty sure you need a 867MHz G4 or better to run it.

I'm really concerned, are they gonna have this ready in two weeks?

I REALLY want native support for MSN in iChat AV. This means Audio, Video, AND Audio/Video conferencing. Also including custom display names, now playing, ability to save and use custom emoticons, ability to change contact names based on Address Book entries. iChat AV is a great app, it's just a shame that I have no use for it because virtualy none of my friends use AIM. And using jabber to log in to MSN strips it of all the features I loved in MSN/Adium.

I haven't heard any news on iChat other than the backgrounds and PhotoBooth effects.

I hate the way they're counting. "Movies Widget in Dashboard." Erh, yeah. That's a feature. Oh, and there's "Simple Mail Setup", which of course is also a "new feature", since the old mail setup was, compared to now, not so simple, although I'm pretty sure they'd have called it "Simple Mail Setup" before, if they had thought of calling it a feature. What else (rummaging in the box...). "Improved Search" is also a "new feature" in Mail.
Also "Quick Look" is three features in one. Well, if you start to look closely, you'll see how these are 300+ new features instead of, say 30. Really: Call it _30_ new features, please. The "new features" inflation will soon have you say 10.6 or 10.7 has a thousand new features. And once you start counting every bit or byte you've swapped around, every version number increase counted by itself because it's _also_ a feel-good change kind of a feature, that's the end. Unless you start _adding_ meaningless code just so you can count more... Puh-leeeze. Call it 30 or 50 new features and good with it. It's still _worth_ the price, dammit.
