apple macbook pro performance comparison

UPDATE: now with core 2 duo processors.
using the macworld’s benchmarks from their macbook pro 2,16 ghz test, i made a table to compare the performance of the new intel-based notebooks relative to the fastest powerbook.
for now, too lazy to make a thumbnail - right click and “view image” for full size
looking at those figures, the intel mac performance advance doesn’t look
as large as apple claims (“4 times faster”) - who would have thought ;-) ?
maybe there’s more to gain for more cad applications - the cinema 4d
gain is impressive, but the g5 is still on par.
not that i need a supercomputer, but the new machine not being slower than the current one would be nice.
