[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1151576, member: 56379"] Maybe this will help: [url=http://www.primatelabs.ca/geekbench/mac-benchmarks/]Mac Benchmarks[/url] It's a list of Mac Models (new & older) with their "Geekbench" benchmarking scores. Depending on the exact model of your black MacBook...it could have a Geekbench score of around 2500. The Geekbench score of the newest iMacs is in the 5500 (and higher) neighborhood. So like I've been saying...the new iMacs "blow the doors" off your MacBook!!!:) Keep in mind...Geekbench does not test the graphics abilities of the computers tested (just the processor & ram). But I wouldn't be surprised if the difference between the your Macbook & a new iMac (in terms of graphics performance) would be even GREATER than the difference between the CPU's (those older MacBooks had VERY poor graphics abilities). Again...hope this helps, - Nick [/QUOTE]
