I'v heard rumors the G5 will use the power of electricity to be the core of the new processor, Which in return will give massive amounts of processing power. Anyone heard of this?
I've heard rumors that the next version of AOL will have added blast capacity to speed up surfing teh interweb and allow for simultaneous cross platform email holography.

STUDENTS DEMAND WARS IN OTHER COUNTRIES
Washington, D.C.
A delegation of American high school students today demanded the United States stop waging war in obscure nations such as Afghanistan, Kuwait, and Bosnia-Herzegovina, and instead attack places they've actually heard of, such as France, Australia, and Austria, unless, they said, those last two are the same country.
"People claim we don't know as much geography as our parents and grandparents, but it's so not our fault," Josh Beldoni, a senior at Fischer High School in Los Angeles, told the Senate Armed Services Committee. "Back then they only had wars in, like, Germany and England, but we're supposed to know about places like Somalia and Massachusetts." "Macedonia," corrected committee Chairman Carl Levin of Michigan. "See?" said Beldoni.
Beldoni's frustration was shared by nearly three dozen students at the hearing, who blamed the U.S. military for making them look bad. "I totally support our soldiers and all that, but I am seriously failing both geography and social studies because I keep getting asked to find Croatia or Yemvrekia, or whatever bizarre-o country we send troops to," said Amelia Nash, a junior at Clark High School in Orlando, FL. "Can't we fight in, like, Italy? It's boot-shaped." Chairman Levin however, explained that Italy was a U.S. ally, and that intervention is usually in response to a specific threat. "OK, what about Arulco?" interrupted Tyler Boone, a senior at Bellevue High School in Wisconsin. "That's a country in Jagged Alliance 2 run by the evil Queen Deidranna. I'm totally familiar with that place. She's a major threat." "Jagged...?" said Levin. "Alliance. It's a computer game." "Well, no," Levin answered. "We can't attack a fictional country." "Yeah right," Boone mumbled. "Like Grenada was real."
The students' testimony was supported by a cross-section of high school geography teachers, who urged the committee to help lay a solid foundation for America's young people by curtailing any intervention abroad. "Since the anti-terror war began, most of my students can now point to Afghanistan on a map, which is fine, but those same kids still don't know the capitals of Nevada and Ohio," said Richard Gerber, who teaches at Rhymony High School in Atlanta. "I think we need to cut back on our activities overseas and take care of business at home, and if that means invading Tallahassee (FL) or Trenton (NJ) so that students learn where they are, so be it."
"I've always wanted to stick it to Hartford (CT)," said Sen. Lincoln Chafee of Rhode Island. "Oh sh*t, is my microphone on?" The hearing adjourned after six hours. An estimated 2,000 more students were expected to hold a march in the nation's capital, but forgot which city it was in.-- (SatireWire.com)
Actually the G5 will harness a tachyon beam for its processing power. This tachyon beam will be generated using dilithium crystals, which Apple just happens to have bought a few tons of recently with part of their $4 billion stash. Those tons will last for decades, since a few micrograms of crystalized dilithium will power a G5 for a lifetime.
The problem with this is that if the power of dilithium crystals becomes common knowledge, then the US won't have anything to start wars over in the near future, and thus the G5 is expected to be delayed because the CIA keeps sending in secret agents to sabotage progress on the tachyon pulse dilithium relay unit. Motorola likes this, because it lets them blame the CIA for their lack of progress on the G5.
It follows that the G5 may never see production because of this.
I just looked at the PPC roadmap on Moto's site. I have no doubt whatsoever the G5 *DOES* employ electricity as an electron bearer to permit the processor's "massive" computational abilities. This power will probably be drawn from a source as simple as the wall socket. Master is right. Motorola are nothing short of geniuses.
Junkyard Dawg said "and thus the G5 is expected to be delayed because the CIA keeps sending in secret agents to sabotage progress on the tachyon pulse dilithium relay unit. "
No, no, NO!! Everyone worth his or her salt knows that the G5 is delayed because tachyon beams tend to interfere with the super-luminal floating point performance of the Altivec 512 unit.
Motorolla (in secret partnership with the Girl Guides of America) have also been having trouble keeping the operational temperature of the anti-matter manifold in the new two-button mouse to below 145 degrees Kelvin.
This makes no sense. I work at a power plant and I know that electricity we make is at 60 Hz. Everybody keeps wanting GHz chips. There ain't no way you can equate 60 Hz to GHz. Chips work on MHz and GHz and other things that Hertz. You people need to get serious here.

Just flow it through 60 non-synchronized pipelines, you've got headroom to 3.6 Ghz.
Jeez, like we all don't have enough to do without explaining such simple concepts.

JD, is that the notourius Star Trek: Next Generation-project witch Apple alegedly have been working on for quite some years? It sounds really promising cause I'd be glad to use a future Mac as the power-hub in my house!

That's friggin' hysterical! And you know what? It's so close to the truth, it's frightening!
Not you Dawg. You snuck in there.

The CIA story is just a cover.
