Not that I would ever consider getting a first gen PB G5 when (and if ever) they come out, but after seeing these I would have to wait several generations before I ever got one. It's got 'easily broken' written all over it. Though, these pics are prob. just concept art or fakes.

that thing looks like it traps mice
yeah the new mac's are going to run on intel chips...weird huh?
apparently ibm isnt doing anything "cutting edge" enough (thats not supposed to sound sarcastic but for some reason it does) anymore and apple wants something more forward thinking (as they always do) - should be insteresting when the sheet is drawn

Apparently though, if you rub the Apple logo on the top it reveals itself as either an Autobot or Decepticon.

It is a funny limited edition Japanese 20th Anniversary edition with a funny little comic and other bits.
You could buy a Constructicon set with all 5 of the Constructicons in one box for about £70 when they were released.

I thought it was really weird with those points on the back of the box. Optimus Prime, Galvatron, Megatron etc all had 4, Hot Rod, Jazz, Starscrem had 2 each.
The only one with 3 points to my knowledge was Soundwave, and I never managed to find him in the shop. Ever.

i think one of the biggest problems with the g5 is that you couldn't really get it down to a low powered, mobile type model without fundamentally breaking what made it a g5.
i think that art is made by a dude that does regular renders of potential apple products. you see his stuff occasionally on some site as "omg, the next iphone" or something.

does anybody technically know why they changed to intel?
better speed? better physical construction? etc?
it seems like a weird move...im sure itll do good things though...

I really don't mind intel chips. If anything it will make it easier to make good ports of PC games for macs. Same architecture and all.
