macosx would be nice on x86, but i think that i have already discussed my feelings towards x86. gighertz, it doesn't matter how fast the processor is, its howmuch it gets done. and the ppc has been proven to do better. like many x86 fans like amd cuase a 1.5 gigahertz athlon, definitaly beats a 1.5 gigahertz pentium, same concept with the ppc. but, unfourtanatly, all my equipment is x86 also. but i have used other systems though
