This is what is showing up on osnew.com this morning on new Mac specs:

1.6GHz, 1.8GHz, or Dual 2GHz PowerPC G5 Processors
Up to 1 GHz processor bus
Up to 8GB of DDR SDRAM
Fast Serial ATA hard drives
AGP 8x Pro (ATI/Nvidia)
Three USB 2.0 ports
3 PCI or PCI-X expansion slots
One FireWire 800, two FireWie 400 ports
Bluetooth & Airport Extreme ready
Optical and analog audio in and out.

If this is true, or close to true, I think the days of my G4 450 are _very_
numbered- the number being determined by how many days it takes me to
convince my wife I need one of these <grin>
