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 @scarlettppc for being the only one on the internet with a photo of an 'upright format' G5 box!
