[G4] Does Apple Lie about the G5?

[sr ferenczy]

hey, it happens everywhere. optimize for your machine, dont optimize 
for the opponent. both ATI and nvidia just recently got caught doing 
the same thing, does anyone really care? no. does it really matter what 
a synthetic benchmark says about system speeds? no

the only thing that really matters is the real world tests, and they 
looked damn good so far.  hopefully we will get some independent tests 
from xlr8yourmac.com , etc in the next few weeks/months....
