PowerMac G5s Arriving... (At least one has arrived.)

MacBidouille reports that PowerMac G5s should start arriving in France later this week and MacWorld.co.uk claims as early as tomorrow for UK readers.

We've received our first report of a California-based user acquiring a PowerMac G5 1.6GHz yesterday. We're still awaiting photos and benchmark reports. (should be coming shortly)

We will try to provide cumulative reports on PowerMac reports and performance on MacRumors as they accumulate, but individual links and photos will be posted in real-time to MacBytes.com as they come in.

Adobe has released the 7.0.1 G5 Processor Plug-in update for Photoshop.
