They quote the "inquirer" as saying we will see G5's at 1.5 Ghz.

Not even going to express my opinion on this.

Wasn't Spymac the one with the iWalk and the 1.4 GHz G4s for MWSF back in January?
If you put a bullseye on yourself, don't be surprised when someone takes a shot at you.

Spymac is stupid. I wouldn't trust them at then end of a 10 meter cattleprod.

They also claimed we'd see no better than 1.2GHz and that the line would go all-dual to make up for this.

They certainly do like to cover all their bases. Predict every possible scenario and then claim "We were right!"

In any case, true or not, they don't predict "G5s". The article specifically talks about 74xx chips, and says the G5 may never see the light of day.
