"This is the apple that released a *15* MHz Mac II when everyone
else was pushing 25 and 33?"

Er, no, this is the company that released a 15.7MHz machine
when everybody else was pushing 16 and 20 MHz.

And this is the company that released a 40MHz machine when
everybody else was pushing 25 and 33MHz.

Sure, there are other issues to performance than raw megahertz.
But let's keep our facts straight.
