OS X 10.8 vs. Ubuntu On Apple Hardware, Benchmarked

Posted by timothy on from the apt-get-me-a-new-version dept.

An anonymous reader writes "OS X 10.8 has been benchmarked against Ubuntu Linux with some interesting results. From the tests on a Apple Mac Mini and Apple MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion was clearly superior when it came to the graphics performance, but the rest of the time the operating systems performed quite closely with no clear winner. OS X also seems to have greater performance issues with solid-state drives than Linux."

    Intel HD 3000 or NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M graphics is Apple hardware? That would be real news...
