My guess is that one consideration is that his runs resulted in scores substantially lower than Intel's published scores. That's one of my takes, too. If you look at the fine print in spec.org , Intel almost always publishes scores based on some compiler version with an alleged availability date months in the future. For example, the current top gigamine scores explained in spec.org Tested by: Intel Corporation Test date: Jun-2000 Hardware Avail: Apr-2000 Software Avail: Oct-2000 If Anand insists on running the benchmarks himself, and I'm sure he does, he either has to work with what's actually available or get the Intel compiler operation in to do a custom installation. In the event of the later, I bet he'd have some amusing tales to tell. I imagine he just decided to bag it, rather than go through the hassle (with the added bonus of random flamage from disinterested parties afterwards :-\|). Cheers, Dan.
