That's a widely held misconception -
PR does make a difference when it comes to SERPs. All other things being equal a PR5 page is always going to come out on top of a PR3 page in Google's SERPs. That's difficult to observe in practice, because all other factors tend not to be equal.

Of course, important pages mean nothing to you if they don't match your query. So, Google combines PageRank with sophisticated text-matching techniques to find pages that are both important and relevant to your search.
