Some wrote: I've heard the following, to add to that list: Pentium/Pentium II -- PowerPC Pentium III -- PowerPC G3 Pentium IV -- PowerPC G4 FWIW I'd bet a buck there's a LOT of disagreement on the list. Unfortunately, there's just no adequate way to compare the full range of recent and current mprocessors by looking for strict equivalencies. It would be interesting to see a chart covering the relative relationships of processors in PeeCees, Macs, and Minis (including Sun, SGI, RS/6000, etc.). I had to chuckle at the poor dood who was lamenting his $10K investment in a IIcx; most of us cry to think about what we paid for our old Morrow or original IBM PC. What about those poor cats who paid huge $$ for Lisa or other similar, short-lived concept/production models? rb ================= R. P. Bell Email rpbell(a)earthlink.net
