This already happened last week.  The new PowerMac G4 towers are running at
speeds up to 733 MHz!  Not only the clock speed is improved, the new PowerMacs
are using PowerPC 7450 processors which are claimed to be faster (at the
frequency) than the 7400 processors used in the previous generation of
PowerMac G4s.
