but mr gates does own shares in apple
 and doesnt microsoft write and release software for the mac ummmm word for example

Mr Gates stake (and technically I believe it was a Microsoft stake) if he still has one, has to be fairly small according to the SEC filings, as the list of owners of greater then 1.5% of the company don't show Mr Gates, Microsoft or one of their holding companies.  As for making software for the Mac, they dont make IE anymore, they still sell office, but will not be moving Office XII (version to ship in 2006) to it according to most reports.  Though that may change if the jump to Intel causes a jump in unit sales.

err, how come 1.83GHz is 4x faster than 1.67GHz  :-?
ok so its dual core, but still 4X
I thought powerpc was so much faster, efficient, better, than intel  :getmad:

If we are talking about the laptops (as I was), next generation processor vs G4, dual core vs single core (so really two processors vs one) and faster bus speed.  The Modo guys verified those numbers on the mailing list, so I would expect them to be accurate.
