Didn't anyone notice almost all the comparisons are on floating-point performance?


Well the Pentium 4's have weak FPU performance ( Intel want people to do SSE2 stuff instead, which seem to work on the high profile games and benchmarks at least ).

If you would compare it to an Opteron / Athlon64 / Athlon it might come out a bit different. However even if the 970 doesn't win it definitely puts PPC back  in the same league again. That is if you can buy them ... Rember the Motorola G5 ? :-)

As for the AOne it will probably be outperformed by palm pilots before OS4 is ready. How about making an ATwo after OS4 is ready ?
