As one writer put it, "The sky is not falling, but it is definately a different color this morning."
I don't think that there will be a big performance difference. About a year ago a Mac magazine (can't remember which one), did a side-by-side test of a Dual G5 and a Dual Pentium machine. They were decked out with VERY similar hardware (RAM, HD, video cards, etc.) and then tested in Photoshop. The scores were nearly identical, but the retail price of the Mac was about $1200 less.
