But it was the iBook 500 that was said to have a bus speed of 50Mhz, not the pismo. The iBook 500 seem to have, as already have been stated, a 66Mhz bus. So the Pismo have faster bus. I'm surprised noone mentioned the measly 256k Level 2 Cache that runs at 500Mhz in the iBook and compared that to the 1MB that runs at 250Mhz in the Pismo (implying the 500 model). While slower, the extra 768K makes the Pismo potentially faster. Why don't you guys request a speed test at appropriate sites? Would be interesting. I'd do it, but I'm waiting for other tests first. -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
