[G4] G4 dual 450 vs G5 1.6 ?

[Kunga]

A lot. My GUESS is about 4x as fast for 64-bit optimized applications. 
We are still waiting for benchmarks after G5's ship to the benchmark 
people.

You are sending in your Premiere Install CD-ROM of course for your free 
copy of FCE right? Or getting the $500 discount off FCP?

If you can afford it, get the dual 2 GHz G5. But the 1.6 GHz model will 
still deliver a lot of bang for your bucks.
