But you are taking that comparison out of context. That
comparison was run on what would today be considered
a mid-range PC. The G3 would chew such a PC for lunch.
However, run Gemulator Pro on the fastest Pentium III or
AMD K6-III and let's see what kind of Mac Gemulator can
match!
Besides, the G3 was built to compete against the likes
of top end Pentium IIIs and AMD K6-IIIs (or K7s) not
mid-range PCs.
