From Roberto Panetta, "News from Tension Software: Upgrade version 1.6.4 of Flight Master, the shareware flight planning software for Mac. This version solve some bugs and has some small enhancements. The manual was partially rewritten.
Tom Trankle obtained some math benchmarks on a 3400/200, G3/233 and an 8600/300:
"I ran a Matlab benchmark on some Macs at the Mac store this evening after work. The results were:
The table indicates time in seconds. Smaller numbers are better. Matlab is a general purpose math/engineering analysis program. Loops is a complicated For loop. LU decomposition and sparse matrix are linear equation solutions.
