More PowerMac G5 Details...

ThinkSecret adds to their previous report on upcoming PowerMac G5s.

According to the rumor site, the innards of the PowerMacs will not be dramatically improved. No PCI-X 2.0 or PCI Express slots. No Blue-Ray support, and only single-core PowerPC 970FX processors -- and not the 970MP processors that has been long hoped for.

ThinkSecret places PowerMac, eMac and iMac updates in the next "two weeks".

Wow, 10% increase in over 10 months... At this rate we may just hit 4.0 Ghz by this time in 2009 :mad:

You really gotta hope the Apple disinformation is doing a great job at Apple...because this would be very disappointing...

This is really disappointing. Even worse, you know Apple wouldn't be doing this update if something could be better soon. For example, if better processors or other gear would be available by WWDC they'd wait until then. This is a bad sign for the near future of the powermac line.

Let's just hope the next report tells us that the new Power Macs are coming in hot pink and lime green...
