Who is fastest is constantly changing, but its often Apple.

Intel has their own vector processor in the Pentiums - what's it called MMX? 
Yet another example of where Motorola makes better designs. And this was even 
the opinon of a computer engineer friend who uses only PC's.

You can inform yourself, that static theoretical tests are not real world 
tests. The speed with which a computer actually works depends on many factors

the different platforms. In theory, the Brazilian team was not supposed to 
win the world cup - but they did.
