Exactly!
I heard today that this was partly due to the fact that IBM could not cool a G5 enough to sit in a laptop, so the Powerbook was stuck at 1.67Ghz. IBM doesn't seem to expend much effort on the Apple chip - especially now that they are deveolping the "cell" chip. (Wouldn't that be awesome in a Mac!)
There was an interesting article on zdnet that suggested Apple should have looked to Sun rather than IBM. Interesting thought.
