You can bet that that IBM's PPC offerings will cost 2x-4x the (roughtly) equivalent offer.
Remember, this is the same company that sells 604e machines for $5,000 in the year 2000. And yes, they are full-on server machines with SCSI, GigE, very nice custom parts, etc, but still, it's not gonna be cheap.
Even if you run Linux on it, Macs will probably be cheaper. Of course, the Linux experience will probably be better on an IBM, and the IBM name might look better to the suits.
Rumor has it that Apple will allow IBM to sell Mac OS X Server with some of its PPC workstations as a part of their ongoing cooperation. So you might get the best of both worlds...
Xboxen? Could you spit the penises out of your mouth long enough to make a coherent comment, please?
And what the fuck does Linux have to do with this? Holy crap, why don't you care about shooting zombies? Instead you fantasize about Xbox Doom3 running Linux? Might I recommend, sir, that you get some serious therapy?
And by therapy I mean taking a bath with your "GNU GPL PC" next time it's plugged in and running.
Get Doom for your Gameboy advance, it's the same fucking game, for 1/10th the price of your 'l33t gaming rig'. Then you'll also have a system with a gaming library that PCs cannot even begin to approach.
It was impossible, until Superman flew to the edge of the universe to retrieve the lost treasure of Cap'n Crunch. Now, with the lost treasure of Cap'N Crunch (only 4 proofs-of-purchase plus $4.99 S & H), anything is possible. Even a GPU measure!

iMovie can't even do batch capture. Hell, Final Cut Express can't do batch capture. Why would I pay anything for that?

I can hear you huffing and puffing in your haste to get FP. YOU DID IT!
