New Liquid-cooled Power Mac G5s

So who else is disappointed that Apple's trumpeting a
dual-processor G5 being almost twice as fast as a single-processor
P4? This doesn't seem exciting -- I thought they'd previously shown
dual G5s beating dual Xeons, but don't see any of that today.

Liquid cooling -- far out! I thought they'd use
water-on-chip-surface (Cooligy
<http://www.cooligy.com/technology.html>, already working with
Apple), but Apple's web pages make this look like water-inside-fans,
apparently not Cooligy. Somehow liquid cooling a la PC overclockers
seems much less sexy...
