 |  1986 Mac Plus Vs. 2007 AMD DualCore. You Won't Believe Who Wins For the functions that people use most often, the 1986 vintage Mac Plus beats the 2007 AMD Athlon 64 X2 4800+: 9 tests to 8! Out of the 17 tests, the antique Mac won 53% of the time! Including a jaw-dropping 52 second whipping of the AMD from the time the Power button is pushed to the time the Desktop is up and useable. http://hubpages.com/hub/_86_Mac_Plus...eve_W ho_Wins

 | Always knew it : Macs rule  No seriously, this quote really says it all : "When we compare strictly common, everyday, basic user tasks between the Mac Plus and the AMD we find remarkable similarities in overall speed, thus it can be stated that for the majority of simple office uses, the massive advances in technology in the past two decades have brought zero advance in productivity"
