I agree with betshopboy… and I think the discrepancy is much more obvious when you travel abroad, as Google doesn’t rank foreign (esp. non-English language sites) as well… The PR technology is improving but still… There are very prominent sites in Taiwan that just don’t rank well.

That is just purely bad luck my friend to get a pagerank 0.

Well, if Google is going to make everyone’s PR zero, PageRank truly won’t matter anyway.
We’re all doomed I tell you.
