The G5 is consumer name for the PPC970 processor
Apple will no longer be using these processors in new machines, and has retired them from everything but the current PowerMacs.
The next Powermacs will run higher-end desktop processors, possibly the 'Merom' processor
The new Macbook Pro is a suitable (if not better) replacement for the impossible G5 Powerbook
The G5 just ran too hot to put in a laptop.
The Macbook Pro is extremely fast and will blow previous machines out of the water if you are running native software.
