Since 1990.
I remember their CPU cycles were "worth more".
They also always cheapens out on stuff, even when they used "PC" hardware, CPU from 4 years ago etc and RAM & HDD/SSD were so small you basicallyhad to buy a "next tier" machine (much more expensive).
But this exists... There's still differences amongst PC CPUs in per-cycle performance...
Sure, but their claim was just bullshit back then.
They did optimise Photoshop wildly for Mac to try to show they were right IIRC.
It is not theirs, it is IBM's. Or rather Freescale's, now bought out by NXP. Was true at the time.
