During the MacWorld keynote a few minutes ago Apple just showed a 1U 
dual G5 Xserve with:

o dual-G5 CPUs
o ECC Memory (!);  DDR-400 8GB max
o 3x serial ATA channels; 3 hotswap drive bays
o dual GigE etc.
o 1U form factor 	
o Shipping Feb'04

It looks like a G4 Xserve with some funky air vents in the front for 
more cooling.

They are also talking now about a new refresh of the XRAID box and 
announced that they've qualified the FC stuff for use on WinXP and '2 
versions of Linux'.
