So.. what are we all buying?

If remember correctly, it is even possible that 600MHz G3 may do some things faster than 800MHz G4 because of more cache(?). The true power of G4 isn't shown until Altivec is supported. Then it is quite clear to choose G4.

I am sure there will be Altivec versions of software titles pretty soon. If you look at classic Amiga software and all the different CPU optimised versions out there, I have no reason to think this will not be the case for AmigaOS4 software as well.

I too think this will happen... I'll get G4 version asap..

@ quenthal

A 800 Mhz G4 is significantly faster than a 600 Mhz G3, even without software utilizing Altivec.

Well, that's it - G4 it is!  :-D
