Go to this page, http://www.apple.com/powermac/performance/, to take a
look at the SPEC scores. The G5 beats the Xeon and the P4 in all
tests except for single-processor SPECint where the G5 is 10% slower
than a 3 GHz P4. But the dual processor G4 beats the dual processor
Xeon in all scores and is almost double the single processor P4.
At 2/3 the clock rate.
That blows me away. Let me say it again.
The G5 is more-or-less the same speed as the Pentium 4 and the Xeon at
2/3 the clock rate.
Wow. Cool.
Apple's also got a whitepaper up on their site that describes the
precise testing methodology. I found it interesting to note that both
of the Dells were running Linux, not Windows, during the SPEC testing.
