edited March 2004 in Science & Tech
The Council of Better Business Bureaus has recommended that Apple discontinue comparative performance claims regarding its Power Mac G5 desktop.

[blockquote]Apple's G5 advertising had previously been criticized. In November, British TV regulators banned an Apple ad for the machine, saying its claim to the title "world's fastest personal computer" is not fully supported. [/blockquote]

    I myself dont even consider an Apply to be a PC. Sure its a personal computer but IBM set the first standards for Personal Computers and Apple does not abid by them. When I think of PC I think IBM compatible.
