Re: Mac CPU performance

[Glenn Schunemann]

I'll remember this when your PC is so inundated with spyware and adware 
that you can no longer load a web page. Or when that new worm comes 
down the pipe and kills your PC. I've been using used Macs (except one) 
since the beginning. My G4 733 is not as "fast" as my 2.4 Ghz XP 
laptop, but I'll take OS X usability over XP any day!

why are my macs clocking in so slow! I was under the impression that 
the mac were a far superior system, especially for CPU crunching! I 
figured my 1.25GHz eMac was on par with my 3.0GHz Hyperthreaded P4 
(which scored 3372 whetstone, and 3884 drystone) This horrible lag in 
performance is almost unacceptable! But maybe I'm doing somthing 
wrong. I dont think I am, but I might be. Does anyone else see this?
Thanks,
Glenn
