Yawn.

WTH is Geekbench? What does Geekbench measure? How does Geekbench measure whatever it does?

Why don't they use the same recognized benchmarks that everyone else uses?

Answer those 4 questions and we can probably tell you how this could be.

I'm extremely tickled that your link is to a website called "macrumors.com" and anything contained on it is cited as act.

Regardless of the content of the site, the address alone discredits it's contents.

+1 for above 3 posts. Since Macs now have some Valve games ported over, why don't we just run those benches on Mac vs PC and see?
