New XServes when?

Interesting reasoning, hope it comes true in the near future,... resulting in G5 1U servers and powerbooks. I just bought one (PB), but I wouldn't be dissapointed if apple came up with a G5 one soon (not that I'd buy one), but just for their market position! I'd like seeing the Macs speed increase!
 
Perhaps they'll do 2U or 3U G5 XServs and leave the 1U at the cooler-running G4. I know that'd make a lot of network folks happy, since they tell me wiring up a 1U on a rack can be a real bitch, especially if you have to occasionally move stuff from one rack to another.

Of course, the main reason the G5 has so many fans isn't because of heat but because of noise... all the G4 noise complaints prompted them to use many slower quiet fans instead of a couple of louder faster ones... and noise isn't really a worry in a rack... so they might just put some faster fans on there.
