Apple Computer Inc. unveiled details of its upcoming PowerPC G4 Macintoshes during a hardware strategy session Tuesday, saying the machines would ship by this time next year.
The new G4 chip, developed by Motorola (NYSE:MOT - news), will contain AltiVec technology designed for processor-intensive applications such as media and heavy-duty scientific calculations.

Apple (Nasdaq:AAPL - news) executives demonstrated the new technology, saying the G4 would be smaller, contain more transistors (10.5 million), and use less power than the Intel Pentium III chip.
