Apple is claming that the G5 is "the world's fastest, most powerful
personal computer." This is a bold face lie. If you read the white
paper, you can easily see how Apple rigged the test. Below, is a
link to a site with a 'dumbed down' interpretation of the test.

As well, on the site, there are many links to other credible news
sites, which say the same thing. In fact, even Apple addressed this
article, but opted out of answering the point.

As you can see, no one cares in this newsgroup. 2 hours and no replies. LOL
Plus Microsoft is not really in competition with Apple, as it is one of
their cash cows. Ever heard of Office for MAC? 8-) Apple has a very big
niche market with the entertainment industry.
Benchmark tests are always subjective and usually biased toward one system
or another. Marketing will set a spin on any advantage they can find and
corroborate with even one test case.
Please don't cross post to more than 3 relevant newsgroups at a time, and
please don't post troll posts to any newsgroups as this post would be
classified as a perfect example of a troll post.
