Intel Mac comes very poor second to PPC

I could care less what chip is in the machine, as long as the performance is good. The intel deal basically saved their portable line of products. I'd like to see a new 12" notebook with the intel stuff in it. This 12" pb 867MHz system i got is the perfect size and weight for me, but i havnt bought the new 1.4Ghz or what ever g4 12" because it's not worth the money when i compare what ive got to whats new. When they stick a 2.0Ghz p whatever in a 12" mac notebook for 2k i'll write a check.

I'd like to know how the cooling is on the machine. I'm thankful that on my powerbooks, all the heat is radiated away from the battery. My 876MHz 12" power book still gets 2 hours on a battery, and the machine gets up upfront where the ram is, but the battery stays cool. I'm assuming if the battery gets mad hot, i will not last as long.

Hey, even if the new macs arent as powerful as steve jobs reality distortion field would have you beleive, it's still a lot more fun than smoking MS Crack.
