Well, I guess the game is up:
The German tech bible has put the latest dual G4s through the SPEC CPU2000 processor benchmark, and the results make dismal reading for hardcore Apple loyalists. C't found that the RISC-based machines running OS X fall severely short of expectations, being bested in the floating point tests by an eighteen month old Pentium III-based machine
You might still be able to buy one of these, on eBay.
Heh. Well, hey, what can I say. It's all been a big ruse, all along. 1x DVD encoding is just an illusion. RT Effects in Final Cut Pro are a sham. 120 fps in Quake 3, that never really happened.
Yeah, yeah. These are undoubtedly real specs and all. And I don't blame The Register for being a bit gleeful about this-- I can imagine many other people who won't be anywhere near as charitable (Unciaa, for one, and den Beste, for another).
But still... you know? Shozbot.
