Mhz for Mhz, the difference is neglible, as can be seen with CPU-bound benchmarks like bogomips. This isn't as true on 400Mhz XScale systems (e.g iPAQ) for various reasons which are only slightly relevant to RISC OS which has unfortunately muddied the waters a bit.

Any cursory read of the IOP321 manual will show that comparison with the 7500 is ill-placed and they have very little in common, as well as showing why any other solution (I'm referring to PCI mainly here), will at best, only be able to match it.

We could go on about ARM9, etc, etc, but any system based upon those remains equally in vapourware territory.

  • RISC OS artist wows public with digital artwork
    A RISC OS-using artist has described exhibiting his digitally-created work in a public gallery as a "rewarding experience". Richard Ashbery, who used ArtWorks and Photodesk to create his images, showed off patterns and colourful illustrations to punters, who told him his work made a change from the oils and watercolour masterpieces usually exhibited.
