I'm a java programmer and I worked very hard to convince my boss to get me a 15" powerbook when it came time to order me a new machine. Funny thing is, it took me 8 months to justify mine, but then within one month three of my coworkers had theirs ordered. It's a great machine for development and it catches looks when working off site at the cafe too!

My advice is to buy now AND wait for the second revision of the G5. It will be a much nicer wait if you have a powerbook on your lap.
