2007 Dual Core AMD vs. 1986 Mac

If you pit a brand new dual core AMD system against a 20 year old Mac Plus running every day tasks…who do you think would win? Hit the link and see for yourself.

In order to keep the hoots and hollers of "unfair comparison" at a minimum, we designed the tests to be as fair and equitable as possible. There was no point running PCMark or Sandra Sisoft-type benchmarks on the two computers as the AMD would have the Mac for lunch. We focused on running tests that reflect how the user perceives the computing experience.
