Apple Confirms G5 Based iMac to Ship in September

evn writes "Apple Insider and Yahoo News are carrying stories about Apple's 3rd quarter report including confirmation of a G5 iMac during Apple's webcast conference call to discuss the filing: 'IBM's manufacturing problems have also impacted our next generation iMac. We normally don't talk about unannounced products but we feel you need to know about the current situation. The new iMac is based on the G5 processor. We could not secure the necessary supply of G5 processors to launch our new iMac on schedule: and as we indicated a few weeks ago, we now plan to announce and ship it in september.' Apple made $61 million dollars profit on $2.01 billion dollars in Q3/04 and had the highest CPU shipments in three and a half years."

Isn't that one of the signs of the apocalypse?

Apple pre-announcing a product, that is. Combine that with the Garfield movie, and I think we're only one very short step away from Armageddon... (but then, with such things as the Garfield movie, Armageddon can only be an improvement.)

What's really a sign of armageddon is the article summary:

Apple made $61 million dollars profit on $2.01 billion dollars in Q3/04

Public service announcement follows: If you put the dollar sign in front of a number, eg: $2, this is pronounced as "two dollars". If you then place the word dollars after it, eg: $2 dollars, this is pronounced as "two dollars dollars". Either have the dollar sign or have the word dollars, but don't have both.

This public service announcement brought to you by the Department of Redundancy Department.

Wow...

What Jobs didn't announce was that they had started a new initative called "iSoul" where for a small "fee" you can have a G5 imac.

Wasn't OSX based on eunuchs?
