Where are their Spec2k results? If the company is unwilling to submit Spec2k results I don't expect their CPU will be performance champion. For example, in the recent press-release (when announcing 1GHz PPC CPUs) Motorolla published results of embedded benchmarks and Dhrystone, not Spec2k. From that I draw the conclusion that their CPU will not shine on general integer or FP code. Yes, probably that PPC still will run Photoshop faster than P4.
