has anyone tried one of these upgrades? the 7447A or 7448?
i have a Sawtooth G4 that i'd like to use for Photoshop CS5. i know
it won't be blazing fast with either of these upgrades.
does anyone have experience with either of these? the company's web
site shows comparative speed data between each processor and the
native G4 processor, but there is no data showing a comparison between
the 7447A and the 7448.
thanks

Ken,
Here is a review:
http://lowendmac.com/reviews/08rev/maxpower-1.8-ghz-single.html
I also saw that newertech's page for the 7447a has the same tests
that they do on the page where they have the more thorough comparison
chart for the 7448
These are tough to find in stock any more, except at OWC where the
7448 dual 1.8 is $779.99. I sometimes wonder if their claims about
the speed can be true, considering the fact that a new Mini has
faster RAM, and a (supposedly) faster processor, etc... If it's all
true, it would be great to say the heck with Intel, and go this
route. I hope someone who has one speaks up :)
Peter
