NO G5/PPC970 for WWDC
I can't reveal my source, but very close friend has confirmed that there will not be a 970/G5 or whatever the hell released for WWDC. What I can say is that it is there is a new system at the Apple Stores and it's nothing that anyone is expecting! He wouldn't confirm but all I can say, is hot damn!

I can't reveal my sources either, but I want to let everyone know that a quad-processor iPod with built-in inkjet is slated for announcement on Monday.
And so close to Monday, too? ergh, I canna take much more of this?
Guess well know tomorrow night...

So Apple posted G5 specs on the store for no reason?
I'm sorry. I just wonder sometimes...

So you have a friend who told you there would be no G5/PPC 970 ... he can confirm that. And he told you it would be some other system ... he can confirm that. But then you say he can't confirm it? Sounds like he already did.
If you have something to say, speak up. Unless you tell us what this "new system" is, your words don't say anything worth reading. It's just one more complete unconfirmed rumor from someone with no clout.
Nothing personal...just a fact. How in the world could your friend get in trouble when no one knows who you or he is? It's not like Moki or some other "public" figure that Apple has ties to. Spill your guts, or go away.

He's a friend that works for an Apple Store in Mass. Here's what I could squeeze out of him...
It's not going to be a PPC970. And I'm pretty damn sure it's not the 15" Powerbook. He said that it's nothing that anyone's expecting. And he's pretty sure that they will not be available immediately. He did say though, no PPC970/G5. I could care less who believes me, I just thought I'd contribute some info since I think I have some..
Either provide some meat, or don't get everything all stirred up. As Ensoniq said, how in holy hell can anyone know you, your friend, etc.?
EDIT: jmoney posted further info above prior to me posting the previous paragraph. My apologies.
36 hours, more or less.
The countdown begins...
Hey, look at my post count! I'm "in the club" now!
It's poetic, I tell ya: 3500. Add 3 plus 5 and you get 8. What numbers surround 8? 7 and 9. Since this is an odd-numbered year, you switch those around to say 9 and 7. Then you add a zero because it's cool. Do I have to spell it out?
CONFIRMED!!!!!! 970 AT WWDC!!!!!!!!
now, that's not to say that, if the G5's weren't going to be ready, steve may now not even preview them, botht o save some face as well as being ale to annouce "good, better, AND best" at the same time. that i would believe.
JMoney, you sound like a paid apple employee given the task of going around and throwing suspicion into the ranks of the rumorville underbelly. nice try.
