hacker, first of all I am Linux user as well. I use both at work, Windows and Linux. What I don't understand is why in the discussion of hardware you separate Linux from Windows as both run on X86, at least by most folks.
Second, the here cited claims for superiority of the PowerMac are based on numbers not on usablity.
Third, I agree with you that it all depends on what you do and how you configure your hardware for that task. Do you realize, though, that Apple, with its proprietary hardware, offers the least amount of choice here?
