Startup time comparison between my MacBook and a PowerbookG3

The startup time comparison between my MacBook that has 2GHz core 2 duo and 1gb of ram and my friends Powerbook G3 bronze keyboard with 333MHz and 192MB ram, was fun to do and will have more to come.

Lol Funny Mod for the G3!!!

[stuwkowalski]

what mod exactly are you reffering to?

[OwlMovieStudios]

You have either too much on the hard drive or too little ram

[stuwkowalski]

actually i got 47gb left =P , but yes only 1gb of ram, starts up in 25-30 seconds but i am upgrading to 4gb of ram soon.

I mean on the powerbook, it seems to be too slow to be true, my iBook 500 MHZ with 128mb ram starts up faster than that, and only 3GB left!

[stuwkowalski]

well, the powerbook only has 333mhz and 192mb of ram with a 6 gb hard drive.

wow shocking. a brand new computer is faster than a 9 year old computer. who woulda thunk?

now please do a test of that 9 year old powerbook against a 9 year old PC notebook. now that would be interesting.
