A long time ago, a P3 had to be almost double the clock speed of a G3

Sure, understood. the "Apples to Oranges" does apply...

It's really hard to compare G4s to P3s because of the intervention of
things like operating systems, software, buses, disk drives, and so
forth. I never cease to be amazed at how one system can be clearly
superior to another on a bunch of photoshop filters, and then get
totally clobbered on a
Is there anywhere I can some sort of a 'real world' comparison between a
Pentium and G4? I'm not looking for crazy "Pantyum Sux" basically I'm
just trying to figure out how much faster a G4/1.25GHz would be compared
to a 650mhz/Pentium 3)
I don't need to be convinced that G4/G5 is better than Pent
