Hmm.. IBM did it again. I wonder if Intel or AMD could do such thing to come out with super proc like this. Solute IBM...  notworthy.gif

Obviously the authors are amateurs... the Power6 is for big-iron machines (Sparc, Itanium etc) not desktops/laptops why would Apple be interested?

1. It can reach 4.7Ghz mainly because it's ALU is in-order; FPU is OOE
2. IBM previously said it could easily hit 5Ghz and above
