Apple should drop all references to MHz from all documentation. I mean, really, who cares? I disagree, I think when AMD started doing that it smelled funny and now that Intel chips have regained the lead it looks like desperation. It looks like 'spin', like Nixon talk. It just looks wrong, like an obnoxious used car salesman.

>>Apple should drop all references to MHz i partially agree. better yet, they should multiply by 2 so all the Mhz sounds better than all the PC's :-) PC folks have no clue that Apple CPU's are actually faster than Intel. they look at the raw number and compare... u got it... apples to oranges

>>Apple should drop all references to MHz from all documentation. I mean, really, who cares? In the end there are only three speeds: too slow, fast enough, and "whoah!".<< WLD - Good idea. It worked for Rolls Royce. If you look at the car's specifications in the owners manual of a Rolls, there is only one word, and no numbers, in the entry for horsepower. The word is "adequate". Well, that used to be the case anyway. I haven't looked at a Rolls Royce owner's manual since 1971. (No, it wasn't mine, but I got to drive it for a week. Sweet.) - Allen
