That's some great information. Thank you for sharing the results of your real world tests. That's the best kind of information to see and it is rare.

Dual 1.42 versus 1.42 Single (1.25 overclocked to 1.42) in the same machine (G4 MDD). I have done several speed test -primary video compression- swapping two processors cards in m…

Woah, that is a crazy amount of OSes. I like the trick of having two per partition to avoid having an unmanageable number of them. My PC has 10.5, 10.6 and Win XP all installed to…
