Not always... depends on what models you're talking about.  Someone
posted some numbers a while back that indicated that a NeXT Turbo is
just a bit slower than a Sparc 2, and faster than a Sparc 1+.  When
you take cost into consideration, you realize that NeXT kills in the
$/mips battle right now.
Of course, if you're talking about a Sparc 10, it's a different
story.
