Like piss they are! The average time between a speedbump and a new processor is like a year! A YEAR! i'm totally into a PB G5 17" and once its out – im ge-in one!

Where are the Goddamn G5's already? Is Apple just using all of their inventory of parts with this new unveiling of G4 laptops (again)? I am also impatient...I'm getting a PC now. Only kidding!
- Luckypp0
Well I for one ordered one of the new 17s this morning.
As far as the G5, there is still so much that needs to be done, on energy consumption as well as heat.
If you want to yell at anyone, yell at IBM to get the 980 chipset ready.

Yeah, you'd think they would've figured out how to attach an LCD to an XServe for the be all and end all of laptops!?!
- puter0
yeah LCD on an Xserver-
great a 40lb laptop with a 30 inch screen that cost 5,000
no thank you.

apple should just make a g5 laptop that doubles as a frying pan so you can work all night on a project, flip it over and then fry eggs on the back and serve your clients breakfast while you show them the creative work you made for them.

The Powerbooks are fan-less. Which in turn makes the battery last twice as long, and a much more quiet laptop.
It's all about cooling.
The new trackpad seems super cool though.
- Donvitoviti0
ya.. the track pad looks great... double finger manipulation!
;)

we can all get G5 laptops (if and when they appear) and all move to the artic... keep our cpu's cool and us warm!!!
boo ya

I'm going out on a limb and say that those of you waiting for G5 PB's have NEVER seen the heatsink on that processor....
- Luckypp0
The G5 laptop will come out, but it will likely be this summer, and it will be liquid cooled, which requires fans, so do not expect it to be too quiet.
- Meeklo0
liquid cooled laptop?
that means water change or rust will take over the computer are you sure?
- johndiggity0
aluminum doesn't rust.

i really wish theyd put the cd drive on the side oron the left side.. mine is all testy because of pressure from ppl right hand leaning on it all the time using the trackpad...

i miss having some of the ports on the back. My laptop looks like a freeking Octopus nowadays.
Or better yet.. MAKE A FREEKING DOCK
