Changes in Late 2003

eWeek speculates about the upcoming plans for Apple/Mac/PPC:



    The main theme I see emerging from these various reports: Apple is methodically plotting its pressing need to migrate the installed user base to Mac OS X against its equally urgent need to speed the evolution of Mac performance, dragged down in recent years by the relatively sluggish ramp-up of the Motorola PowerPC G4 CPU at the core of most current Macs.

No new details or rumors, but reiteration that major updates should not be expected before late-summer 2003.
