!APPLE LIES ABOUT G5! - NOT THE WORLD'S FASTEST COMPUTER
I'm sorry for the multi-post, but I feel that the many users, that can
easily be mis-informed, should know about this. 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. http://www.haxial.com/spls-soapbox/apple-powermac-G5/ 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. -- Please be polite. ------ |

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. -- Michael Stevens MS-MVP XP http://michaelstevenstech.com For a better newsgroup experience.

They've always claimed that. And Intel has always claimed the opposite.

As you can see, no one cares in this newsgroup. 2 hours and no replies.
Well geez Mike, I *did* post it at late night in North/South America, only people on the other side of the world would probably reply, and I don't usually see to many of them here. As you time of post says 4:01 AM, (I'm going to assume that you live in North/South America) that means that you posted between 12-9 am your time. -- Please be polite. ------ "Michael Stevens" wrote in message ...

No I am not, because, as I said before, I made this post because some
