MacWorld Magazine Benchmarks the G5s

La Temperanza writes "Macworld has released yet another set of benchmarks of the full line-up of G5 desktops, along with Dual 1.42GHz and single 1GHz G4s. The results are very interesting indeed, and I think I can safely say they're not biased in the G5's favor." I dunno, it should not come as too much of a shock that a dual G4 can beat a single G5 in many tests.

I just want to say

...that it's nice that a totally independant and unbiased organisation is benchmarking the G5.

...and computers, too!

Boy, we've had the squabbling over whether the G5s will be the first 64 bit this or that, benchmarks, benchmark rebuttals and counter-rebuttals, more benchmarks, still more benchmarks, nonsensical stories of Gentoo installs with performance that violates the laws of information theory...

It'll be anti-climactic when real computers start shipping!

whew

[McAddress]

that takes care of today's new G5 benchmarks.

now we just have to wait for tonight's SCO update.
