Are you also claiming that the Photoshop tests are manipulated? any test can be manipulated.... course then there are those who actually just want to find out which is the better machine by buying two off the shelf, and installing photoshop off the shelf..... macnightowl.com azcentral.com now, i'm sure a 3 gig chip might finally be faster than a 1 gig Risc chip..... but isn't kind of silly that it took them that long to finally come up with a chip that really is faster than a little ole 1 gig Risc chip.... in the mean time, apple will release 1.5 ghz chips even 1.7 ghz chips in five or so weeks.... guess what happens again to these REAL benchmarks.... and that's before the 3 gig intc chips are scheduled to debute..... so is it really smarter to go with an energy hog toaster oven that cost more, just so you can be slower than the better and even cheaper chip? not likely apple will choose this course... that being said, IBM and apple better get off their duffs and get that 2.5 Ghz chip out the door, IBM already has it done, Apple and IBM just need to sit down and discuss it..... and how to make it work with altivec and a desktop computer.... (by the way that is the equivalent of 5 ghz intel chip) are you really going to be excited about going to a hot running energy hog X86 chip when there is a 5 Ghz equivalent out there that is cheaper and doesn't run as hot and uses less power? lets see if IBM and Apple can coperate..... jon.
