There would appear to be something quite astray here... If you look at the bogomip howto http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/BogoMips-3.html#ss3.13
you will notice that the bogomip relationship with processors is in step, ie faster processors = more bogomips ;) The howto lists a g4/999 @ 1992 bogomips Yet within this thread I have not seen anyone reporting anything approaching this sort of rating. david > Hi..

My info is as follows: > > processor : 0 > cpu : 7447A, altivec supported > clock : 1333MHz > revision : 1.1 (pvr 8003 0101) > bogomips : 663.55 > machine : PowerBook6,4 > motherboard : PowerBook6,4 MacRISC3 Power Macintosh > detected as : 287 (Unknown Intrepid-based) > pmac flags : 00000008 > L2 cache : 512K unified > memory : 256MB > pmac-generation : NewWorld > > The machine is the recently released Powerbook G4 1.33GHz 12".
