I am sitting in front of a ti 550 and i have the feeling that something is wrong with this machine. It is pretty damm slow in OS9 and OS 10.2.6.

Anyway I ran xBench to see if there is some stupid stuff going on but i can't compare it with other users cause the site is down. :-(

can anybody with the same machine post his xBench results???

you can download xbench right here:
http://www.xbench.com/

I have a 550 combo Giga ethernet, 512mb, with an upgraded HD from 20g to 60g.

I do not have a full xbench breakdown, but I remember my total score was about 45, against your 36.

I'd say you have a problem somewhere.

Sorry I can help no more.

Here's the results from my old Ti550 that I borrowed back from my sister to run Xbench. The hardware's hasn't been changed since I got it from Apple, and Jaguar's never been re-installed, just upgraded to 10.2.6.
