"We finally benchmarked the Apple PC in Windows successfully, thanks to the latest video driver release. It seems to struggle a bit in games with the level of detail increased, but it's certainly not terrible, it's about as good as a mid range notebook system." Read on for detailed results. Cnet has special coverage of Boot Camp. And on a related note... This is just freaky.

I'm not sure if running faster than snot is good or bad?
(my snot is slow) 
And it's only because you mentioned the iMac 17" - that I decided to ask:
What the heck made them pull the 15" PowerBook off the shelf? I'd love a 15" MacIntel PowerBook - a pcmcia card slot is still important these days and as far as I've seen the MacBook doesn't have one.. is this right? or logical?
12" is too small, 17" is too big, but the one in the middle was juuust right.. (sigh)

the MacBook Pro is 15.4"... you'll probably see the Powerbook models there replaced by intel equivilants under the "MacBook Pro" moniker.
and yes, the 15.4", it includes, according to Apple (http://www.apple.com/macbookpro/whatsinside.html) an "ExpressCard/34 slot, which yes, is a PCMIA-made expansion standard.
