I think that, in general, it's true that you can't compare mac processors Ghz-for-Ghz against PC CPU's, because a Hz only refers to a clock cycle, and different CPU's can run more instructions per clock cycle. I think your "2x" figure is pseudoscience, however...


It's probably pseudoscience, and not my own...while I usually don't just pull shit out of my ass (not to be confused with any statements in the 'late to the party thread') I do tend to spout of half formed, ill-informed and mostly, things heard/read whilst intoxicated as gospel truths.

Let's just say we're both right.

Hence AMD's entire product naming scheme based on Intel's Ghz counts.
