Check it out and let me know what you conclude.

Hey, great link. I was looking for something like that.

I read it when it came out, but, then when I went back to look at 810E in general, I couldn't find anything useful.

It looks like 810E is not as horrible as everyone has been saying. It would be nice to see some Sandra screens of the systems, to know how much of the performance is contributed (or penalized) by which component.

The troubling thing (or encouraging - depending on your point of view) from the review is that they used the built in graphics chip, which probably means it can't be disabled. Do you know anything about that?

Overall, 810E is within 5% of BX on the Winstone and Sysmark. So I wonder what's contributing more to the penalty, the chipset or the graphics chip. Overall, I think it's acceptable for a general business use.
