So it's ok to run the test on a software that haven't been updated for PC well over a year? Hoho.

It's always difficult to compare Mac and PC due the huge software differences. If the comparisation had be done it should be done with 3rd party VSTi's. For example use Logic 7 on Mac and SX3 (which has 64-bit support by the way, yay!) on PC and then start stacking certain plugins, like Arturia Minimoog V2's with certain patch and then add plugins until the machine can't handle it anymore. The test could also be done on several different plugins, like Z3ta+, Absynth3, Kontakt, etc and then calculate the average. That would give 100% objective results.
