Anyone with even a modicum of tech savvy knows PC's are faster than Macs especially the crappy PowerPC processors which is why apple have now swapped to Intel processors (and for many applications, a top-end single core processor rocks all over the dual core ones Apple use because most apps don't or can't use threads very well). Try compiling some stuff with gcc. Do it again on your similar specification PC. Enough said. This is coming from someone who has been exclusively a Mac user for 18 months at home and 12 months at work now too. There are an awful lot of great points to be made for Mac but they don't get to wear the speed crown. Get a grip already. What are you on about?

I have a G5 and quicktime still plays H.264 like crap at full-screen, but VCL does it without a problem, so this just means Apple is clueless when it comes to video playback.
