I expect that 4x faster is just a number you made up. And it was not considering apples to apples.
this quad core p5 has 4x the CPW of a single core i5: http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/p/hardware/entry/550/91331efa.html here is an ITJungle chart showing the i5 to be 2x the price: http://www.itjungle.com/tfh/tfh110606-story02-fig02.html you dont have to answer of course, but I would like to know what IBM is thinking in terms of pricing of the system i5. The user and vendor community could build a new GUI that works with green screen apps, but such a thing would likely go nowhere if the base i5 remains geared down and over priced. -Steve
