For the record, I started up the new G5 in my office today. Copying all the files and applications from my G4 was a snap - when you start up the G5, it has you connect a firewire cable to the other computer as a way of moving the files. It's seamless and very well done.
The G5 - a dual 2.0 GHz processor model - feels snappier all around. Applications start up faster, and everything is completed in less time. No scientific analysis here, just a happy customer.
The G4 - a dual 1.25 GHz processor, dual optical drives - is now in the lab. It's still a great machine.
I'm looking forward to Tiger. I guess it's not enough to have a new box!
