Comments on: Putting the Dual Boot in http://cheerleader.yoz.com/2006/04/putting-the-dual-boot-in.html I came here to apologise and eat biscuits, and I'm all out of biscuits Fri, 25 Nov 2016 14:37:10 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.7.29 By: Paul Mison http://cheerleader.yoz.com/2006/04/putting-the-dual-boot-in.html#comment-928 Thu, 20 Apr 2006 17:19:16 +0000 http://cheertest.yoz.com/?p=249#comment-928 In their review of Parallels Workstation, MacWorld have some very rough and ready benchmarks that bear out my previous claim: Photoshop’s faster on a dual G5 than a Intel Mac running Windows.
Photoshop in a VM seems to be faster than Photoshop in Rosetta, though, unsurprisingly.

B-b-but I’ve just bought five of the very last G4 powerbooks (thanks to Apple’s refurb pricing madness on their refurb store), just so that I can be photoshop-smug for the next year or so. I too await the multibutton trackpad – Apple, the days of the monoprod are past. Long past. Learn.

I accept that’s true if you look at any given Intel Mac, but if you look at the entire range of available hardware, I’d be surprised if a top-of-the-line G5 tower didn’t beat an Intel iMac running Windows.
That doesn’t stop it being embarrasing.
As to the right click support, if you’re the sort of Mac user who’s already used to using control-click everywhere, the Apple Mouse Utility lets you use that key combo for context-clicks in Windows too.

Reasoned points. However, a MacBook running windows would also run ‘Windows Defender’, Norton Antivirus, SpamBot… (repeat to fade) a whole lot faster too 😉
Now you back blogging again sir, how about some more of the same – pleeeease (with a cheery on top)!
