I found this a rather interesting discussion over on Slashdot, obvuiously people going to be pitting OS X on Apple PowerPC hardware to Windows XP on Intel/AMD hardware.
- Every time there"s a mention of Mac OS X on Slashdot, there"s a flurry of responses about how unbearably slow Mac OS X is.
To anyone who has done software development under both Mac OS X and Windows or Linux, is there any truth to this or is it simply a knee-jerk reaction from non-Mac users who see low numbers like 800MHz.
I"m talking about average priced Macs here, like the LCD iMac line, not the dual 1.25GHz machines that sell for $4500+.
