Why don't we just guess what kind of apps will be used for the MWSF 2002 Mac vs PC bakeoff



I think the apps that will be using in the show really depend on what chip the new PowerMacs are using.



Forget Maya. This app is very very slow like ****ing hell and it's 0.5 version behind other platforms so there is NO way to use it.





In the case of G5

1) Lightwave 7.0b

2) Photoshop 6.5 BETA --- if Adobe delivers

3) SETI



In the case of Apollo

1) Photoshop 6.5 beta. If the 6.5 isn't there....version 6 running under OS 9

2) Office X?????

    Photoshop 6.5 beta, and either Maya (new beta?) or Lightwave

    Photoshop, because the Pentium 4 will stomp the Powermac using any other application.



    Note: Only select filters will be used to rig the bake-off, so that even a Sawtooth G4 Powermac at 400 MHz could win.

    I am doubting any Pentium out there now will stomp a 1ghz G4 or higher, when you say "stomp" you DO realize your talking 2/3 seconds here at most. That isn't "stomping"



    Photoshop is overall faster on the Mac.. not just in "select filters" Remember I said overall.

    Photoshop 6.5... in OS9, no less.



    I have little doubt that the Carbonized version will be many times slower than the Classic version; so, I think we'll be seeing OS9 bakeoffs for quite a bit more time to come...
