What exactly are you trying to atttain with this posting? Things like "HW
and SW is too strong" is not really a good argument if you can't back it up
with concrete values. And the sentence  "win box lovers would never give
it a shot" not really helps in getting serious non-flame answers...

Noone is saying that G4-450 is not a good hardware, but the way you put
it more sounds like "G4 is the best and everything else is bully." (At least
I have this impression) Note that I'm not a Wintel-user (and never was)
so the argument "You're biased!" doesn't count for me. ;)

Personally I think G450+CM6000 have a comparable strength of P550+
CM6000. I base this opinion on many tests which show that G3/G4s have
a similar performance than a Intel/AMD with about 100MHz more. TSCP
benchmark also indicate this, although it's not 100MHz difference if I
remember correctly.

Let's not turn this into a HW-fight. If you're interested in that, visit
advocacy newsgroups. :)

Kind regards,
