3.0 GHz isn't important. Let me repeat that: [b]3.0 GHz is NOT important.[/b] Clock speed of a processor means literally nothing. It is a marketing tool and [em]that's it[/em]. I could probably sketch out a processor that ran at 1 MHz but performed better than the latest G5s and Pentiums. (It would cost a *lot* of money, though.) The [em]only[/em] time you can compare clock speed is when you're comparing speed [em]of the same processor line[/em]. Pentium 4 vs Pentium 4, IBM 970 vs IBM 970. Everything else is comparing apples to oranges.
