Some early specs:
The G5 runs current 32-bit apps natively, runs up to 2GHz, 1GHz front-side bus.
It offers 215 in-flight instructions (the G4 can only do 16), an optimized Velocity engine, two double precision floating points, two fload store units, massive branch prediction logic, 130 nanometer process, silicon on insulator, and 8 layer copper interconnects
The new system features 400 MHz 128-bit DDR memory, AGP 8X Pro Graphics, 133 MHz PCI-X slots, Serial ATA, and connects to HyperTransport interconnect
Dual processors are offered, with up to 8GB of memory
Three Models: 1.6GHz, 80GB HD, 256MB RAM, $1999:
1.8GHZ, 160GB HD, 512MB RAM, $2399;
dual 2GHz, 160GB HD, 512MB RAM, $2999
Sounds like a helluva workstation.....
