>Some people seem to think that I just make up these performance comparison

>In this discussion, assume "wintel" is a 500 mhz PIII with either a agp

rage128

>I never said macs were SLOW, just not quite as fast as the best intel
systems.

>The current mac rage128 cards run at 75 mhz, which is a third slower than

>"Sucks" is a subjective description that can be dismissed as opinion. Note

sucks,

>"Faster", when qualified with testing conditions, is objective, and all the

>Altivec should be better than the PIII extensions (trinary ops -- yeah!).
>The upcoming system architectures look good. They have a shot at it, but
