Leaked Pro Mac Photo Summary
A MacRumors forum user posted a copy of this PDF (removed per Apple) on Friday, Jul 19, 2002 claiming to be a diagram of an upcoming PowerMac G4 design along with some details.
While trying to verify the information in the PDF, the author posted a thread with the PDF, while MacBidouille posted actual photos which corresponded with the images found in the PDF.
