    Mac miniTower

    I done a search and found nothing so hope this isn't old... I found this over as macosxhints

    CUPERTINO, California--April 1, 2006—Apple® today unveiled the new Mac® miniTower with two Intel Core Duo processors and one Motorola Dual-core PowerPC G5 processor inside the box. "This is our new 30th Anniversary Macintosh," explained Apple CEO Steve Jobs. "By offering the Intel Core Duo and the Dual-core G5 in one machine, we've created the ideal Intel transition machine. Our new Dispatch® chipset automatically routes PowerPC code to the G5, letting these older programs run at full speed until Universal versions are available." Starting at just $1,699, the Mac miniTower is a powerhouse at an affordable price.


    Anybody else seen this? is it for real?

    All the mock ups and rumors that these crazy macs heads come out with are just rediculous. Only reason that pc's don't have all this crazy rumor crap is because on thier down time they can play games and do fun stuff...
