Should Apple dump the G-Series and go with INTEL?

I don't know why people bash Macs so much. If you really never used the recent Macs (Mac OS X) than you really shouldn't be "dissing it." That goes for any product really.

Anyways I am not going to start that hole Mac Vs. PC thing like they did about a month ago.

General consumers are often fooled that speed is everything. For example, Office works just as fast on a 200Mhz Machine as it does with a 3.0 Ghz machine. That is partly why the computer industry is suffering so much, there really is no reason to upgrade, because all of the applications today still run on machines made 5 years ago. So what, if the newer machines run 2.34 seconds faster than the one you got. It doesn’t matter! What the PC Industry really needs a reason for consumers to upgrade. And I don’t think that is really going to happen until video conferencing comes really good, and consumers replace that with a telephone. And I think Apple is on the right track, with their digital hub strategy, and their iAps. Microsoft has somewhat of a similar plan, but it really isn’t that good.

Speed is really irrelevant unless you’re a pro.

Speed is usually only needed for people who are either rendering animation, compressing video, or graphics.

For games, they always brag about how many hundreds of frames they can produce. So what! You can only see about 60fps to 100fps, because of the refresh rate on most monitors.

Personally I think speed is bloated out of proportion. You have to look at the general picture, and see what best suits your needs.
