http://www.tomshardware.com is pretty good. Doesn't cover the Mac,
but of the other two, the short version is: Intel chips perform slightly
faster at the same MHz, but can cost as much as 2.5x as much. Intel
have also been having a few stability probs lately.
Re: The P4s, they seem to be roughly the equivalent of P3s of the same
MHz (if there were such a thing). They get a big performance boost if
the software is P4-optimised but, as none of it is at the moment, that's
a fairly nebulous advantage. http://www.tomshardware.com has more on
this.
