"I purchased a G4 400 and of curse the first this that I did after unpacking was
to run caffeine 3.0. Detailed scores are not in hand at thin moment, but
overal score was 6686. Note that in my Mac 333 MT the score was 4900.

Of course, the G4 is faster but not very impressive.

OTOH, using some programs with swing and JTable is slow  in this machine.

May be some day Java will become usable for a serious projects :-)
