At least not at the price Apple is willing to pay for their special  
fabs.  I can buy IBM PowerPC dual core Blade servers by the trainload  
- absolutely no problems with supply of cpu's.  And they cost less  
than an Xserve to boot.

It's more like Apple's G5 sales were pretty dismal after the initial  
introduction.  They didn't move the product volume they told IBM  
they'd move.  After awhile IBM stopped answering Steve's phone calls.
