New Mac Rumours

Okay...it seems that the scoop is pretty will known of the MacIIcx:
	68030, 68882 at 16 Mhz.
	3 Nubus Slots.


But has anybody heard anything about the Mac coming out in August?
    Heres what I would like to see:
	33 Mhz 68030 , 68882
	25 Mhz Nubus clock (does anyone know if TI's Nubus Chip set
		can run that fast?)
	32 bit quickdraw.

Also, I've heard that Apple is rewriting the system software in C, implying
that the Mac could run off most any CPU platform.  I've heard that
Apple engineers REALLY like AMD's 29000 processor.  I've no details whether
they are planning to use it for a cpu platform, postscript engine, or
a quickdraw accelerator.

Anyone seen this future screamer?
