I aluded to the speed with which my new macbook can compile softwarez. With the old (1st gen) Macbook Pro I have it takes ~3 hours to compile qt-copy. With this one, ~1 hour. Awesomeness. Here're some hard times for kde module build.
Machine: 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Macbook
Time taken to compile: kdelibs - real 14m28.700s kdepimlibs - real 3m kdebase - real 9m18.283s
