RE "No one knows exactly why OSx86 appears to be running faster on the PCs than the Mac OS does on today's Macs." - It could possibly be that both AMD and Intel make chips that are a lot faster than the Power PC chips that drive Macs !!!!!! (In fact you would be hard pushed to buy a brand new PC CPU that is as slow as a Mac CPU).

The reason Macs run so fast is that their OS is a hell of a lot faster than Windows. So if you put A Mac OS on a machine designed for a slow clunky OS like Windows, then it is going to be a hell of a lot faster.
