IBMac?
IBM releases a new 1.8 PowerPC microprocessor. If apple chooses to integrate these into their line of systems, they might start competing against pc's again :).
Though it looks like it will be apple who shafts their own user base. If they were to announce this product, who in their right mind would buy a g4?

Rotten Apples...
Apple has decided to withdraw from this years macworld. Instead this years macworld will feature such headlines as, "The Swedish Line Dancers", and "Bill Gates does the cha-cha" instead of Steve Job's traditional key-note speech.
Macworld...mac optional.

Note the speed. Then note the scores. I wonder if Intel can even hear anything anymore with all of AMD's war drum's banging away.
