'Macworld NY' Rumors
The focus of the article, however, appears to be the Xserve and does contain some new information. One anonymous reseller reports that Xserve sales essentially halted after the PowerMac G5 was announced.
The article also confirms previous rumors of deep discounts for developers on Xserves, hinting that Apple is trying to clear the channel.
The only Xserve rumors available here have been relatively unconfirmed rumors regarding Xserve updates by September. One additional anonymous report that came in provides similar information with claims that there will be no Mac OS X 10.2.7 Server version... and instead the new G5 Xserve's will require Panther Server. According to these rumblings, Panther Server is expected shortly after Panther Client.

theres still a lot of time before it becomes an actual issue.
I think Apple finds itself in a precarious situation at the moment because the speed gap is so wide at the moment between Macintoshes and their Wintel counterparts. Anyone with half a brain knows that with a little bit of time, the G5 will make its way into all of Apple's products - and if demand slackens much for iMacs and such, we'll find the G5 in there sooner rather than later.
With that in mind, unless someone absolutely, positively *must* have a new computer, they're going to wait until the entire product line moves to the G5. I sure as hell know that I will.

I'd still like to know if Panther is going to be a 64 bit operating system ..... MacWorld recently posted a story to the effect it wasn't going to be 64 bit..... but nobody else seems to care
The Register cares.

Thanks ....that's a valuable article....just curious as to why Apple downplayed the issue so much and it seems to have floated below the radar of the multitude of Apple news and rumor sites
