    It's never a good idea to mix a valid point with half-truths or even non-truths. Just stick to the valid point and all is well :-)

    Hard, factual numbers don't have anything to do with your or me noticing them. 1.50 is more than 1.42, and 1.83 is more than 1.60. No feelings or such could ever change that fact. I'd have had no problem if you for instance said that PowerMac G4 and Mac mini G4 were *much the same* regarding CPU speed. But you didn't say that. You implied that MorphOS supported PowerMac G4 has *faster* CPU speed than Mac mini G4, which is simply reversed truth.

    True, but your first posting mentions "new processor power" of MorphOS supported PowerMac G4, which I was referring to.

    No one of us MorphOS Team non-members can answer this question. So it's really no wonder your "original point" is under-addressed. And I think you know pretty well that almost every MorphOS user (including me) would welcome support for better GPUs. It's just that loads of "me too want it" responses wouldn't really help with anything because the MorphOS Team is quite aware already.
