Also this Ibm supercomputer talk seams mute why did Mac leave Ibm and return to intel why do PC's play games better then macs????

if intels cpu's suck so bad why doesnt ibm rule the pc market??? 

Are you seriously so dumb that you equate market share with technical quality?  IBM makes better chips, but people are fucking cheap.  This is why Apple switched.

 

Apple switched because Apple's needs stopped being a concern for IBM insofar as development of the powerpc platform was concerned. Specifically, electric efficiency and thermal dissipation. The old powermac needed a fridge-like contraption taking a quarter of the case (we're talking about a towercase) just to prevent the powerpc chips inside melting themselves.
