[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 910907, member: 56379"] How come the other deal fell through? Your HP is a laptop...is trading for a desktop going to fit your computing needs? As far as a CPU speed comparison...this is not an easy thing to do between Windows & Mac computers. I'm not 100% sure this is the best comparison...but maybe in terms of CPU evolution between Windows & Mac computers...consider the G5 CPU's to be kind of like Pentium 4 CPU's. If your HP has a 1.46 ghz dual-core processor...that would be more like some of the slower 1.83 ghz dual-core CPU's Apple used in the older MacBooks & iMac's. Hope this helps, - Nick [/QUOTE]
