  No...the new PPC 750 processors kick the shit out of them...Intel is
about 2 years behind now...In our Unix world, we just need someone to
start building nice big systems based on them.  But in the meantime,
in the desktop world, the newest Macs (I hate to say it) are running
big fiery rings around the newest Intel boxes.

  Now it's up to the suits to figure out which is *really* more bang
for the buck. :)
