I think with the comparison of the laptop G4s to current intel offerings is a like comparing apples and oranges but that is a different story. The point I am looking to make here is the Intel Mac may be faster then the older PPC offerings but I would like to point out that a friend of mine works in a print shop and they use Macs exclusively in the art room. They have both brand new Intel Macs and old G4 power macs as "backup" machines. But truth be told they have found they are much more impressed with the old G4s because unlike the new faster Intel macs the G4s are actually consistently reliable. Their Intel Macs are consistently crashing or malfunctioning in some other way. The G4s are the only machines that consistently function.
What good is a brand new Ferrari if half the time you turn the key nothing happens? What matters more. Speed or reliability.
