Generally, the prices on the G5's are pretty good, for 64-bit dual-processor machines. You'd be hard-pressed to find a dual-Opteron for that price. However, it seems to me like Apple is struggling to keep up. It's pretty obvious by know that the G5 and the Opteron are pretty evenly-matched, clock-for-clock, and until the 2.5GHz refresh, the G5 was falling behind in clockspeed. If Apple had been able to deliver the 3.0GHz G5 this summer, as expected, people could be really confident that the G5 had some headroom. Now, the G5 has only a slight edge (and a slower release cycle), so it becomes a "wait and see" matter on whether Apple can keep up.
