While the Mac is definitely slower at processes that are commonly found in your games, I find it very hard to believe that you had any trouble having the G4 come out ahead on video encoding. Using the same source video on a G4 500, and a PIII 1Ghz, resizing and compressing to 320x240 from a DV stream using the Sorenson 2 codec, the Mac completed the process over twice as fast. While I don't play a single game on my Mac, I also don't use my PC for any of my creative work. The speed boost I get with Photoshop and MCP on the Mac is noticeably different then my PC. Oh, BTW I love Team Arena to death and play it way too much, but you really need to get a User Interface designer to do some work on your Multiplayer menu system. The flow of the menus is atrocious, and the need to jump back to the main menu everytime you exit a server drives me nuts. It actually drove me to use GameSpy!
