Two vs. four, but also the difference between pre-noise pollution/post and pure turbine (707) and turbofan (787). And the other piece is the advances in technology in 50 years!!!

Those four JT3D-3Bs had 18,000lbs of thrust apiece, while those two GEnx engines have about 57,000lbs of thrust apiece.

Went to an air show a few months ago (before obummer killed them off) and saw F-16s, F-18s, and F-22s in action. I've always loved the noise and enjoyed the F-16 for that reason. The F-22 is an amazing bird, but you just can't beat the sky-ripping noise of the older engines.
