Hi, "flipper"

I have a TiBook 667 (Rev B Fall 2001) and since it didn't have the large Level 3 cache that VPC 6 seemed to take better advantage of, I was reluctant to spring for the upgrade, since I didn't think I'd get that much of an improvement. I'm running VPC 5.0.4. now.

Are you saying that you noticed a considerable improvement in performance from version 5 to 6 on the same machine as mine (which would cause me to re-evaluate an upgrade), or do you have the Spring 2002 TiBook 667 with the Level 3 cache?
