I am skeptical.

We have already started the second quarter and there has been no reliable news. You think we would have heard something about it since they will apparently ship within the next 2 months.

I don't buy the story either... This article appears to have been posted back in January... It definitely seems like we would have heard something else by now.

Well Q2 is almost done. In some ways it would fit. Thing is, the article passed up the significance of a G5 iBook / PowerBook, glossed over it completely. That may well be a misprint, and meant to be G4 not G5. It's really talking about who is making what, and the journalist writing it probably doenst know a mac from a vax.

then again, apple is well known for their typical shock element when it comes to introducing new products.

Yeah, the articel posted here also lists the iBook as a G5, obviously a typo.
