Default domain name vs pr

Neither!

Toolbar PR means NOTHING. The domain name is ONLY of any real use when used as anchor text

domain name, keywords used and relevancy of the content within the site matters to SE spiders not its PR

Pagerank plays no role in SERPS. The only use pagerank really has is for selling links (or placing higher in some directories..lol)..So it's all about quality unique content and backlinks

PageRank won't tell you how well you're doing with your Web marketing. It doesn't indicate where your visibility is strong and where it's weak.

PR is used in Google's algo. There is some use to it in SERP. In such case where two competing sites with equal scores in SERP - the higher PR site outranks the lower PR site.

PR does not matter in keyword position in search engine. content is also important for a page rank of a website.

i think pr does not matter in the search engine results, because many times we see that some websites are on the top in the search engine results with less pr while for the same keywords some websites comes down in the search results with high pr

He is talking about 2 different things, but pr does matter with backlinks and serp's. A link from a high pr page will help you site more than a link from low pr page and will help you get higher ranks.
