I just checked out the specs on EveryMac:
There's only one native mode 9.2.2 Mac faster than my Dual 1 GHz Quicksilver 2002.
This was the Apple Power Macintosh G4 1.25 DP (MDD), intro'd August 13, 2002 and produced until January 28, 2003.
2003 release MDD Models could ONLY run OS9 under X in classic mode, so the Dual 1.42 GHz MDD cannot be classified as a Native OS 9.2.2 Mac.
This is all according to EveryMac, so YMMV.
While the 2002 MDD Models might be faster because of the basic architecture change, I'd need to see some benchmarks.
I'm not currently in the market for any "wind tunnel Mac" and I think I'll stick with what I've got in the QS '02 Dual 1 GHz. :approve:
