Jon Rubinstein, senior vice president of Hardware Engineering at Apple, 
spoke to Macworld UK about the Apple G5. While declining to comment on 
unannounced products, he did concede that the possibility of a G5 
PowerBook was simply "an issue of good, solid engineering," David 
Fanning reports for Macworld UK.

  "He made it clear, however, that the current crop of G5 processors are 
designed for desktop machines, and a cooler-running version of the 
processor would be needed for a PowerBook. But he did point to the fact 
that a few years ago, nobody thought it would be possible to get a G4 
processor in a PowerBook" - wink wink
