I won't believe it until Apple sues The Register ;)
So The Register gives Apple free advertising, and Slashdot gives The Register free advertising.
I'll be looking for the Slashdot links on Apple's website... you know, to complete the circle.

We're sure this is really suggesting the release of Office 200e, and not just a typo for Office 2004! Whoops, typo, I mean Office 2003!
I mean, really. It can't possibly be a typo for "g4" and MUST forshadow the imminent release of a G5 PowerBook!
if you want to see what the PB g5 looks like now, go directly to the marketing site . I think the details should be self explanatory

No, no, you've all got it wrong. They're definitely going to have Powerbooks out earlier than expected, probably as soon as next week! And the new versions will feature a magical box that turns dirt into pictures of Jennifer Love Hewitt's tits that print money -- STANDARD!!
How do I know? Well, I just bought a Powerbook.
Shut your iHole...
Are they hiring lawyers to test them? I mean if it should happen to overheat, and cause the user to catch on fire, a the cold hearted lawyer would not be injured, right? If they do catch on fire, its not like it is a big loss anyways, right?
It's on a web page, so you know it's true.

Pretty conceited of you to extend the adjunct on cynicism through evaluative assessment of his criticism ..

A G5 Mac Mini, or a Powerbook shuffle, now that would be news. Or a Newton OS Mac PDA phone iPod Airport Express thingy with no broadcast flag and dual processors. But aren't exactly banner headlines.

heresy?
did he speak out against god or something?
OOOOOOH, you meant HEARSAY
ok, now I got ya
think I'm just being annoying and difficult there? Guess what, you are too.
I'm not sure that word means what you think it means ;) Just to clarify, did you mean heresy, or hearsay?
Looks like heresy to me just like every other statement out there. When I said that I want an official statement I mean OFFICIAL. From Apple on Apple.com.
And people accuse mac fans of being the religiously fanatical ones.

"contrary to rumors around the Internet, Apple has told Macworld that you can even do it yourself without voiding your warranty "unless you break something when you open it.")
So contrary to rumors on the Internet, rumors on the Internet state that the rumors on the Internet are not true?

And if we see job postings for cryogenics engineers, we can assume that the G6 powermacs are being designed.

There's also a rumor that General Motors will be coming out with new models later this year.
I mean if it should happen to overheat, and cause the user to catch on fire,

A burning Mac user? Is that what you native English speaking people are referring to when you say "flaming homosexual"?

Crud. I just realised this was apple.slashdot.org, and jokes which in any way could be interpreted as implying something remotely negative about the object of worship equals Karma Suicide.
It doesn't help that I own a couple of PowerBooks, does it? Please?

My G4 has been doing an admirable job of keeping me warm, but I am always looking for something hotter - preferably something I could make iCocoa with while burning my legs.
Mmmm. Second degree burns and marshmallows.....

Could you buy a G5 powermac instead? I want to get my hands on a G6 next week.
Don't blame me; I'm never given mod points.
Either that or Steve Jobs is dying.

since you're new here are the de-facto rules:
1. Never talk bad about Apple.
2. Microsoft is bad (expound exponentially on this point)
3. ????
4. profit.(from old Korean hot grit Natalie Portman soviet russia, welcoming our new (#3) overlords, all you base, and I am sure that I'll be reminded of what I missed.)

Introducing the new apple_g666_powerbook!
Buy it now, before time runs out... The end of the world is nigh!
So if they're really cranking out the G5 PBs now, then there's gotta be a bunch of photographers and models running around offices and parks, probably in California, posing for those action shots.
In California kids learn how to say "NDA" before they learn how to say "momma". Seriously, when powerbook 12" and 17" were shown for the first time, Apple already has had prepared a TV ad starring two celebrities - Yao Ming of NBA fame and Verne Troyer, "Mini Me" from the Austin Powers series (that's how 12" got its nickname). Yet these powerbooks took everyone by surprise. Apple could right now be developing iBeam, portable teleportation device, with Paris Hilton starring in commercials being shot right now on Rodeo Drive, and everyone would keep mum, because their Non Disclosure Agreements would basically say that their balls will be teleported if a word comes out about it.
We'll still have to wait until Netcraft confirms it, to be sure.
