How can they do this to me!!?? I just became a faithful Mac user, soon to buy my 3rd laptop (4 screen setup, Linux and Mac OS X). Fanicially, it makes tons of sense. Cheaper for them, cheaper for us. All good, right? That's a load of crap! Apple's gotta be paying all the news sources to not bad mouth 'em or SOMETHING. Some kind of freaky obsessive brainwashing. Anyway, Intel processors do a really good job of BURNING UP. They are friggin' HOT. ALL MAC USERS WILL NOTICE THIS. DUH YOU IDIOTS. RISC (IBM processors) >>>>>>>>>> CISC. CISC is hot and stupid. Unless Apple gets them to manufacture something custom, we're all screwed.
To get super technical using laymans words, every processor has a pipeline. ANd along this pipeline, there are stages. THe lower number of stages is best, usually. The G4 has 7 stages, where the Pentium 4 has 22. 22? What idiocy is this! The huge amount of stages allowed for higher clock speeds (which in the real word mean nothing). The P4 is a marketing chip. It has a record for heating up faster than my toaster oven (don't ask, hehe).
So yeah, have fun flaming me. I just was not happy. Not happy at all.
