And against the evidence of actual commercial work, where a modest C2D Intel Hackintosh can perform a DVD authoring step (producing a playable DVD from .VOB files) in 12.5 minutes, whereas a reasonably fast dual G4 takes about 60 minutes. Needless to say, a 4.8-to-1 advantage in favor of Hackintosh computing resulted in this operator converting all his commercial work over to Hackintoshes. Now, I have only one G4 left operating, and it runs Mail.app and Classic. http://groups.google.com/group/hq-a <+> A home for the Hackintosh community.
