I didn't say I'd run out and use the Intel benchmark suite either. I just said you should look for the hardware guys that are really objective. Tom is clearly not one of them, he posted a few times a couple years ago how Intel was going down in flames and everyone should sell Intel stock and buy AMD (right before the k6-3 came out and AMD went into the celler).

As for your whining about SPEC, no one was complaining when Athlon showed huge SPEC advantage over katmai. Everyone thought it was a great benchmark then.
