10-15 business days to ship... maybe you'll get lucky and have a revision in there. Might end up with an extra GHz or 2.
Don't tease me!!
I saw that too and was hoping...but who wouldn't be happy with a dual 2Ghz G5?

It's a great machine, crazy if you're unhappy with it! Best Mac available!
Congratulations
I tried to talk my boss into getting me a 23" but he put his foot down.

That's almost enough to make you order an SP1.6 for yourself and somehow get it mixed up with your work machine...
