[QUOTE="meltbanana314, post: 95852"] You really can't compare the speed of Macs and PCs accurately, because most programs and games are made for PC and then ported to the Mac. PC World (or was it PC Magazine?) did a benchmark between a G5 and an AMD64 machine - but the programs were heavily biased towards the AMD64 machine. Except for Photoshop, in which the G5 was 1-2 seconds behind the AMD64 in rendering times. Anyone who claims that PCs are better because they are 'faster' doesn't know what they're talking about.
