I went from the last PB (1.67 G4, 2GB) to the MackBook Pro (2.33 Core2Duo, 2GB) and saw a noticeable speed improvement. Apps like Photoshop CS2 and InDesign CS2 load slower, but once loaded run as fast as they did on the PB. Some tasks in PS might even be quicker, but not by much.
Universal Apps make a huge difference.
Call of Duty under rosetta runs better on the MBP than it did on the PowerBook, with the exception of a crash here or there rarely. Speedwise its faster and less choppy though...I really don't understand this. Would have expected something entirely different.
