It would if they listed the exact parts used.

No they don't.  They do not list the i5 used.

You can't be this stupid, nobody is this stupid.  Would you buy a car because it has a "2 litre engine"?  Or would you want to se more information first?

If they said what CPU they used, you could look up precise speeds for different tasks using the Intel website.  But Apple withhold this information because they're a bunch of conartists fooling gullible idiots like yourself and taking your hard earned cash.

Simply which i5 is installed in the Apple.  All I need is a model number.  3570K etc.

Why should I have to?  Why are Apple withholding information?
