I've received a link to this page: <http://www.maven.businessweek.com/Maven/WhatsNew.htm> from my colleague because it contains a reference to our platform which has ranked the best among other tested Wintel computers. But when I scrolled a bit down I've seen a Mac G3 that performed even better (32.9 points against 22.4)! Fun is that our PCs (CLR) are considered being among the fastest Wintels to date. Nevertheless, even with 128 (!) meg RAM and 300 MHz chip it's slower than G3 at 266 MHz and just 32 meg. Although I work for a Wintel manufacturer I'm still an Apple lover and (undercover) evangelist, and have 2 Macs at home. |
