Xserve G5 Updates?
They claim the Xserve will be upgraded to the G5 around September, and maintain that the PowerBook G5's will not be available before 2004 due to heat issues. Further notes claim that the Power5 is due in December, with PPC 980 chips arriving in 2004.
MacRumors readers have speculated about an Xserve update after the introduction of the new PowerMac G5's... and it does appear that Apple is offering Developers deep discounts on current Xserve and Xserve RAID units through July 31, 2003 -- causing some to speculate that they are attempting to clear out these items. No other evidence is yet available on these updates.

what else are people going to say?
Yes, I am definitely waiting. For Godot too.
I really do wonder when we'll see them in Macs, though. Could the G5 have a short lifespan in the PowerMacs ( < year) and then go on to the iMacs and PowerBooks when the 980 comes out late next year?
This is so different than using Motorola chips - waiting years to get small improvements.....
D :D
Because of that I doubt it goes in an XServe any time soon. Even the low voltage Itanium is going in a 2U chassis.
That would be some feat though if they could go from 9 fans in a tower to 1U or 2U in a month or two.

The original French actually says that most of the heat problems have been solved already, but the main problem is the controller chip on the motherboard.
