>G5 powerbooks MWSF04 the earliest YMMV???   What does  this mean?

this is common knowledge among mac people, excuse me for been this criptic.
Along the year apple has 4 main Expos,(san francisco, tokio, new york,
paris) and for the last years  they've been releasing new computers at the
expos (soemthing Jobs wants to terminate, as it was hurting sales a month
before every expo).
BTW, MWSF04 means MacWorld San Francisco, wich takes place in January 2004.

There's lotsa buzz regarding a G5 powerbooks, but the most educated guesses
say they wont appear till IBM can manufacture the 970 chip with thinner
technology, which will make the processor to keep cooler. Have you seen the
dissipators of the G5? that's what i'm talking about.
Moreover, a chief in apple say the other day that motorola is not discarded
yet (and for sometime it will remain partner) because it's the provider of
the powerbooks cpus, and that they wouldnt be a g5 powerbook for some time.

Of course we may take this with a big grain of salt, but it looks like there
will be another G4 upgrade for the whole powerbook line before we see G5s
inside. Best informed guesses say new revision around august-september (G4),
and G5 next year (MWSF04 the earliest). Your Milaege May Vary.

hope this helps.
