I know someone had mentioned the emac bump to 3-5 days, and the ibook 12/combo to 7-10 days... everything else except xserves are same day shipping. Now, we have a problem... xserve is still 5-7 weeks. So, basically, If I ordered one next week I would recieve mine pretty close to WWDC...ok, i'm off about 20 days or so, but that's kinda worriesome. I think we are having some major heat issues with this baby. The entire reason for this delay may be apple is going to skip the entire 90mm die and go straight to the 65 before we see the light of day on new powermacs... If they can get the heat issue(if it is even such) into a 2" by nearly 2 foot machine that probably weighs in excess of 20 lbs, the chances of getting a G5 into a portable are slim to none before 2006!!!! will see 1.5 ghz g4s in the portables in the next 2 months or before... will probably stay with us till jan of next year then probably bump up to 1.8 to 2.0 for another 6-8 months so if we are lucky sept/oct 2005 more likely jan 2006. Though you may see a powerbook style laptop worksation that might see the light of day by the end of this year. Probably would weigh in under 10 lbs, 2" or under 17" screen. But of course hopefully, we'll se some new apple gizmo that can take a little heat off the ipods. And then their is the display issue... Apple is playing a waiting game, they have the products it's almost as if they are waiting, stretching the timing out until the crowds can't take it any longer... how long can the masses wait 6 months, 8, months 12 months? What is the longest we waited with out any kind of speed bump when moto was driving the bus?
