During yet another press event, Apple introduced new PowerMacs and PowerBooks as well as a new photo application called Aperture. The fastest new PowerMac holds two dual-core G5 processors at 2.5Ghz each, while the two lower-end models have one dual-core G5 at 2.0 or 2.3Ghz. The dual-core G5s have 1MB L2 cache per core. The 15" and 17" PowerBooks now have 1440x960 and 1680x1050 resolutions. Aperture is post-production photo software built for professional photographers.

All else being equal, would a single 970MP really be faster than two equally-clocked 970FX's?
Not really, but it's not intended to be. (The L2 cache is bigger, which should give a small performance improvement.)
Also, does anyone think that the motherboard on that new single-cpu G5 has an empty slot so I could eventually make it a quad?
I strongly doubt it; Apple doesn't care about upgrades.
