I guess I simply expected a brand new, just built G5 to be loaded with the latest software on the market. Maybe I expected too much. My 1-year-old iMac at school is more up-to-date than this brand new one. 10.3.5 came out on August 9th, iPod updater came out on August 6th, iPhoto came out on August 5th. I didn't order this until August 18th. Oh well, no biggie, just wondered. Chill Kevin.
