perfect name for 970 cpus
yes, what would be the perfect name for the [oh well, confirmed ...er... existence of] new 970 based machines?
(a) drop entire gx scheme but leave "power mac" as a wellknown brand
(b) just g5 (business as usual)
(c) drop entire gx scheme and "power mac" AND adopt funky names from different sources (e.g. astrophysic)
go ahead, boys and girls ... er ... did I ever asked, where the girls are? OK OT;-)

Let the performance of these new chips speak for themselves and without the baggage/context of G3/4 or 5.
Clean slate. Remove the negative connotations associated with the mhz drought (G4.)
A new chip. A new OS. A new level of performance. I think that new plateau needs some special treatment. The media love that kind of 'relaunch'.
I think it would be good PR.

Drop entire gx AND "power mac" and take some funky names from "different sources" (e.g. names from astro-physics)
That's my vote. Something like "dumbass astronomer"
..wait, that was already taken
Change is a good thing!?
