    Yip. It just once again shows, that all that talk about the G5 being superiour compared to intel Pentiums, all Steve Jobs nice little comparisons between his fancy G5s and an oh so slow Dell Workstation, etc have probably been complete BS. Not that we did not know that. I just find it amazing that people still think Apple would not bend the truth just like all the other companys do.

    Or you could see it as a laptop built from todays intel microprocessor technology is slightly faster than IBMs chip tech from 2 years ago… running code optimized for both platforms.

    “Ditch your old dual G5s and buy a laptop” I guess is the message right?

    That’s what the test shows. Nothing else.
