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.

Apple never said that their current machines are slower than Intel chips. Indeed they are and have been. Your article is very trolish in that you reiterate the myth that it only occured in obscure circumstances.
One could just as easily argue that the same could be said for Intel chips. The truth is, is that both chips perform some functions better than others... depending on the task at hand.
Apple's reason for switching is because they know that ***future*** versions of the PPC chip do not allow it to retain the same speed advantage that they've benefited from.
