It's FRENCH and no I don't Tom. But I do have a translation:

" Sales of G5 Dual 2GHz explodes - Lionel - 21:34:32

  The sales of the G5 exceeded all the resolutely optimistic forecasts 
of APPLE.  Nearly 65000 G5 Dual 2GHz were pre-ordered only from the 
APPLE Store (physical and on line).  They were surprised by this rush 
to the top of the line machine, whereas the Mono 1,8, that they thought 
would be the most  popular, sold only 26000 units.  This disparity 
poses a problem to Apple.  IBM is able to deliver the G5 1,8 in much 
greater quantity than the 2.0 GHz.  However, the top-of-the-line model 
needs twice as many processors (being duals).  This enormous passion 
for the G5 dual 2GHz is at the origin of the potential delay for these 
machines.
  But no need to panic, each day the output of IBM 2GHz processors 
increases."
