Video Description

The Power Macintosh G5 was was released in 2003 into a sea of technological challenges and change. What looked like the next great chapter for PowerPC ended up bringing it to an end. I talk about how it all went down and interesting details about the machine along the way. From the 1.6GHz low-end machine to the top-end "G5 Quad". The all-metal accessible case, the water-cooled CPU, 64-bit, OS X, new monitors and a karaoke machine companion product. Thanks to Rodrigo Copetti for use of his Xbox 360 xenon processor photo from his article "Xbox 360 Architecture: A practical analysis" https://www.copetti.org/writings/consoles/xbox-360/ Thanks to @saraaa7447 for being the only one on the internet with a photo of an 'upright format' G5 box!
