Of course.

Potential problems are:

1) this is on Adobe site.
    So this can be signal that Adobe plan to stop soft for MAC.
    then this will kill Apple on DTP area

2) this tests look not pleasant because
    FASTEST DELL computer, beat into 2 times FASTEST MAC.
    and have $600 lower price.

    so this is not some PC and some MAC.
    was compared FASTEST machines in the line.

    and Apple always say that MAC is FASTER of fastest Pentium...
