[QUOTE="Amen-Moses, post: 96159, member: 114"] Just point them at the current top super-computer systems, at least 2 of the top ten are G5 systems one of which uses Apple hardware. NONE of the top ten use PC hardware. (btw the G5 is better known as the PowerPC 970 which is the big brother to the Power4 architecture, by far the majority of super computers use the Power4 architecture as it has been around a while now. The AMD Opteron is just starting to appear on the charts and it is a blindingly good chip although not quite up to the 970 yet.) Amen-Moses [/QUOTE]
