The reason for this is there are still a few innovations on the high
end ("in the pipeline" as Jobs put it) for the G5. So you will still
continue to see some new G5's coming out.
The guy who originally wrote Mathematica and his main developer were
there. They ported Mathematica in two hours....and that was without any
advance prep--they were told it was secret and just showed up a couple
of days before. The porting will not be anything like carbonization
(which can be lengthy).
