Leaked Pro Mac Photo Summary

A MacRumors forum user posted a copy of this PDF (removed per Apple) on Friday, Jul 19, 2002 claiming to be a diagram of an upcoming PowerMac G4 design along with some details.

While trying to verify the information in the PDF, the author posted a thread with the PDF, while MacBidouille posted actual photos which corresponded with the images found in the PDF.

Meanwhile, a MacRumors source confirmed the authenticity of the enclosure, and Apple Legal requested the removal of these images hosted on MacRumors.
