Apart from the 64 bit part that applies equally to the P4. The only reason I can see for the liquid cooling in the G5 is because Apple's trying to make the G5 quiet, and the typical high-end P4 that competes with it is anything but... unless they also use exotic liquid cooling systems as well. The Intel laptop chips are not comparable to the G5, they're much closer to the G4. -- Unsupported OS X is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> Support Low End Mac <http://lowendmac.com/lists/support.html> Unsupported OS X list info <http://lowendmac.com/lists/unsupported.html> --> AOL users, remove "mailto:"; Send list messages to: <mailto:[email protected]> To unsubscribe, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For digest mode, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subscription questions: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Archive <http://www.mail-archive.com/unsupportedosx%40mail.maclaunch.com/> iPod Accessories for Less at 1-800-iPOD.COM Fast Delivery, Low Price, Good Deal www.1800ipod.com
