Tench, re: Benchmarks.
Bapco's SYSmark is a highly regarded and apolitical test suite that is widely reported. bapco.com
If a third party test house does a platform comparison using SYSmark , (and publicizes the platform set-ups), should the results be questioned?
Unfortunately they are. Which says a lot about the credibility of benchmarks.
