I have no idea what specs that might have, but my bro can probably tell me. Ya know, I didn't get the dual processor, but the processor speed is allegedly higher on my G5 than the powerbooks. I probably will wait to buy til I've "road-tested" a laptop and see how I like it, and check the reviews on the new ones, as you suggest, X! (Say, are you named after Mac OS? )
