I came up to an advertisement of apple's G5 computer. There was a test's results showing that G5 is faster than a dual Xeon 3.0GHz processor although G5 has 2 processors running at 2.0GHz!
Any comments?

Can G5 solve the problem of Mac Os X delay compared to Mac Os 9 running faster than X in older computers?
