RDM Re: Apple (Nasdaq:AAPL - news) executives demonstrated the new technology, saying the G4 would be smaller, contain more transistors (10.5 million), and use less power than the Intel Pentium III chip.

So let's get this straight - in one year from now, Apple will start shipping PowerPC G4 machines that use less power than Intel's Pentium /// which has been shipping for 3 months already.

That's progress ! They have 15 months to get the power down.
