Check out the results! For the functions that people use
most often, the 1986 vintage Mac Plus beats the 2007 AMD
Athlon 64 X2 4800+: 9 tests to 8! Out of the 17 tests, the
antique Mac won 53% of the time! Including a jaw-dropping 52
second whipping of the AMD from the time the Power button is
pushed to the time the Desktop is up and useable.

We also didn't want to overly embarrass the AMD by comparing
the time it takes to install the OS vs. the old Mac. The
Mac's average of about a minute is dwarfed by the
approximately one hour install time of Windows XP Pro.


Is this to say that the Mac Plus is a better computer than
the AMD? Of course not. The technological advancements of 21
years have placed modern PCs in a completely different
league of varied capacities. But the "User Experience" has
not changed much in two decades. Due to bloated code that
has to incorporate hundreds of functions that average users
don't even know exist, let alone ever utilize, the software
companies have weighed down our PCs to effectively
neutralize their vast speed advantages. When we compare
strictly common, everyday, basic user tasks between the Mac
Plus and the AMD we find remarkable similarities in overall
speed, thus it can be stated that for the majority of simple
office uses, the massive advances in technology in the past
two decades have brought zero advance in productivity.
