2.6GHz PowerMac G5s at MacWorld SF 2004?
Appleinsider claims that IBM is currently producing 90nm G5s in volume at speeds of 2GHz, 2.2GHz, 2.4GHz and 2.6GHz.
Apple is expected to announce these new G5 processors in speed bumped PowerMacs at the January MacWorld Expo according to one source at Appleinsider.
This would be consistent with previous rumors and whispers that the low-end PowerMac would become a single 2.0GHz G5.

Why don't they just go all dual with that range, it would cleary define the difference between the imac and the pmac.

Dual 2.6. Da**.
here's where people start complaining about how the dual 2.6's are sneaking into their houses and tinkering with the old dual 2's, making them "slow." Kinda cruel how Apple spends money giving them legs and programming them to do that.

ok - so now I'm kinda glad we haven't ordered our G5 yet for the office - seems like January may be magic time after all :)
A dual 2.6 Ghz G5 would make quite a nice stocking stuffer :D

So if the 2 Ghz is going to be a single proc. Which machines are going to have the duals? How much more expensive is it to have a second proc in the G5's? Will you be able to get a second proc. later on?

This speedbump would make sense. Apple would need to get around 2.5GHz at this speedbump in order to get to 3GHz by next summer. Nice to know that IBM can successfully implement a fab process.
Perhaps a 2GHz 970 at 90nm is needed for the xserve update. Would be pretty sweet as a dual 2GHz in a 1U rig. They would fly off the shelves (until they got installed, of course!) :p
Now, if only they had this sort of good news about the 980 development.
