Ive decided to wait til late July, after WWDC (it is in July, right?) well, after the WWDC, whenever that is, is when ill order, just to be sure dual 3 GHz machines, as insanely unlikely as they may be, dont show up.? Just incase

But still you hope... still you want to believe that it might just happen Wink
Im going to stick with this baby untill the end of next year - this thing still has a lot of life in it and right now my money would be better spent on some RAID storage or somthing to back my damn work up... ugh the painfull memories

Hey, if it did, you sure wouldnt hear me complaining! =D

I know the possibility of Dual 3's comming out at the WWDC is unlikely as all hell, but with my luck, this would be the -one- time that it does happen, and then i would cry.

The next question is are the 30" flatpanels going to be released at the WWDC?  A Dual 2.5 + 30" Flatpanel...mmmmm sexy.

Cobra, your only response to my comment on this not being new was complete BS. It wasn't new because there were already 90nm processors. If apple put a 1.8 130nm processor out one month, then released a 2.0 130nm processor the next the 2 wouldn't be a revolution. Sure, it's great to support Apple, but don't try to over inflate a speed bump and tweak to the cooling.
Wait.  Step back.  I didn't say or think or imply that this speed bump was a "revolution".  I have never "over-inflated" a speed bump ? this is 2.5GHz and we were promised 3GHz (are you responding to the right person?).  The jump to 90nm in PowerMacs is new (would you like a definition?  "recent"; "different from has been").  There were previously no 970FX's in Apple's desktop level machines (and more or less only nominally so in their servers, what with the delays).  Complete BS?  Ahm.  No.  There's not even anything to dispute here...this is trivial, in any case, unless you were implying something other than what I addressed (in which case you should restate your point).

Yeah, I'd need a new desk for a 30" monitor.  23" sounds like plenty for me, at the moment.

Probably a misunderstanding. Further I would suggest you to order the 9600XT for 60EUR more! It delivers 20 - 30 fps more than the outdated NVidia 5200FX. That's a good bang for the buck.

Yep I think it is time. I just wait until the end of my term(2nd July) so I can learn without always thinking about my ultra cool super?berdr?ber fast G5, hehe.

Further I wait for WWDC and the first G5 benchmarks and then I gonna decide if I buy an old refurbed one(if I can find one in Austria or Germany), or a new one. Which one it will be isn't decided yet. We will see - I'm excited.

My old iMac wants to retire and become an ultra silent server and cool designed jukebox Wink

Djing isn&#039;t realy about celebrity, or money, or getting laid, it&#039;s about music. Music is what motivates the finest DJ&#039;s:they love it, they live for it.

Think of the fps you'd get though!
