First it's Motorola with the G4 chips. Now it's IBM with the G5s. Curse of the high-end desktop Macs?

As The Apple Turns' got a couple of write-ups about the "curse" here and here.

Hope Apple's able to find a good exorcist. Still hoping for a 3GHz Power Mac G5 by summer '04 like what Jobs promised. ;-)
