Was it Palol Rossetti that one said, "People in glass house shouldn't throw stones?" Push away the Intel this, the Pentium-M that, or perhaps the ability to use the Dual Core Pentium 4, Apple has a much bigger challenge ahead of them. For years, they have been throwing down the MHz myth and now? They are sleeping with the "enemy" according to PowerPC zealots.

Some people missed out on reading the Intel roadmap. And perhaps even more people missed out reading the small blurb within that roadmap that stated an "Improved FPU" (the only place the G5 was leading) is in the pipe. Sure it may not be better than Altivec, but it should be somewhere in the ballpark. This will not happpen today of course, but thats also the reason Apple is not planning on using today's hardware. All comparisons were made between the G5 and Netburst-based Intels. I believe what Apple will be using to be another story.
