Yes it tells me that a couple of years ago intels were better. Big deal we all knew that a couple of years ago. It says NOTHING about P4 vs Athlons.
If you really want to know why P4s suck btw I can quote you a lot of stuff, but doubtless you wouldn't understand it, if you really want to know read (and understand) AMD techdoc 22007 and Intel techdoc 24896601. These explain the workings of the two cpus (note these total maybe 600 pages of information).
For the nutshell summary; P4s may have higher clocks, but they do one hell of a lot less per clock than an AMD.
