Appleinsider is reporting a June release...and they accurately predicted the fact that the Powerbook and the iMac would be the first Intel-based Macs released at Macworld. In other words, out of any rumour site, I think they're the ones most likely to reliable.

Point is, when is your purchasing deadline? I'd personally wait until June, but in reality, a G4 won't suddenly get slower when the faster Core Duo's get released, providing people keep making universal binaries.

My deadline is soon, mostly because of the clutter. However I have narrowed my worries down to the fact that companies might stop releasing software that runs on the PPC platform...if I knew that wouldn't happen I think I would go for it soon.
