'Power Mac G5' specs appear on Apple Store

Apple has seemingly inadvertently posted specifications of upcoming Power Mac models on its online Apple Store. Under the Power Mac G4 section, a list of specifications describes "the world's fastest personal computer" as containing 1.6, 1.8, or 2.0GHz PowerPC G5 processors. Update: The Apple Store went offline at 12:05 a.m.; it is back online as of 12:25 a.m.; the image in question has been removed, but can be found here: Power Mac G5 specs (our screenshot).

The specifications read:



- 1.6GHz, 1.8GHz, or Dual 2GHz PowerPC G5 processors

- Up to 1GHz processor bus

- Up to 8GB of DDR SDRAM

- Fast Serial ATA hard drives

- AGP 8X Pro graphics options from NVIDIA or ATI

- Three PCI or PCI-X expansion slots

- Three USB 2.0 ports

- One FireWire 800, two FireWire 400 ports

- Bluetooth & AirPort Extreme ready

- Optical and analog audio in and out




Many Mac enthusiasts and industry analysts are expecting the company to debut new Power Mac computers at next week's World Wide Developers' Conference.

I just went to the Apple Store website and it's still up! This is just incredible! This will blow the doors off anything Intel has! I could go on but my jaw is on the floor right now.

Looks like it will be good competition for the AMD64 CPU.
