Apple Previewing New Power Mac?

Posted by timothy on from the looks-pretty-similar dept.

dunric writes "CNET.com reports that Apple Computer may be previewing a new Power Mac, complete with dual G5 processors and a more advanced memory configuration." The "previewing" isn't intentional, though -- the report is based on service and repair documents distributed last month and reported on AppleInsider.com. AppleInsider has taken down at least one image from their report, but have added an artist's rendering.

    I know I shouldn't feed the Trolls but....

    Honestly, the life of an Apple product is a lot longer than a typical windows PC. I still use my Powermac 9500 (running 10.3.4) but I have retired my 600Mhz Pentium III.

    And how many people do you see driving old BMWs compared to Toyotas? Which looks better?

    This is also why rumor sites tend to keep careful track of promotions and discounts from Apple, believing they are efforts to clear out inventories of older models in preparation for a new product launch.

    it does have fins. The current G5's are just like this. There is just a seperate cover for each.
