Apple's Dual 2GHz By The Numbers

mallumax writes "ComputerWorld has an exciting review of Apple's Dual 2GHz machine." An excerpt: "It's clear from two weeks of testing that Apple's new Power Mac G5 dual 2-GHz machine is the fastest thing the company has ever produced. And while you can debate benchmarks until eternity, it certainly appears poised to meet or beat anything now out on the Windows side."

Plenty fast, but I'm still waiting...

for one side (Apple) or the other (Intel, et al.) to switch to an organic compound instead of silicon. If that really will allow a huge speed increase, then it seems to follow that whoever adopts this first will have a huge competitive edge.

That's assuming, of course, that the price is half-way reasonable. Anybody have news on that front?

More and more every day, this site seems to be just a copy of OSnews.com. I can't tell you how many times I see a story posted there first, and within a couple of hours the same story with the same wording is posted here. What gives? We don't need two sites being copies of each other.

I find it funny

I find it funny that all the posts that are moderate towards the Macintosh, or show how a Wintel machine can be a bit more, or generally don't slam the Mac, are all modded very low. I give this post 30 seconds before it is modded -1 Troll.

FLAIMBAIT?

Since when is truth flaimbait?

Posting an review on slashdot that claims that the G-5 is fast because it boots into photoshop in 8 seconds is flaimbait.

This is just pointing out the flaws in your article. ...

Sometimes I hate slashdot
