I was in Compusa to get paper today, and I got in an arguement with the Apple rep over their fake advertising and bogus benchmarks. The kicker was he told me that a dual 2 ghz g5 machine with 8 gigs of ram is equivalent to 2 pentium 4s running at 6ghz..

LOL when I asked him why apple didnt test against a hyperthreaded p4, he shut up real quick... LOL anyways, just thought id share.

I'm a computer salesman, and I'm not full of sh!t.

And yea, Mac's are not as fast as they would like to claim.

Yes, you gan put 8gb of ram in a G5.

And who cares abotut he guy at CompUSA who's never seen, let alone used a G5? Might as well argue about which machine will run Duke Nukem Forever faster.
