Hi!
be as fast?I have a Wall Street II (PDQ) with a 266 MHz G3 processor.
Will a PB 1400 with the 466 MHz G3 be as fast? Will screen redraw will
Has anyone had real, practical experience with this two configurations? Best regards. Hugo Diaz [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I had a 1400cs with the 466 card and a Wallstreet 233 with only half the cache of the Sonnet or the WS 266. Both had 2GB drives. For real-world things I did like opening Word or Excel docs, the 1400 was about 1-2 seconds faster. However, the Wallstreet won out due to the bigger screen and expandability. I was able to run OSX (with a bigger HD later) and use USB and FireWire.

Hi!
I know that a newer 'book will almost always beat an older one. I was referring to things like you said, that Word opens a little faster, etc.
Did you notice an improvement on screen redraws, or in how fast a Web page loads? Would the 466 1400 be a little faster than your 233 WS?
Best regards.
