Petz, Re: "All internet sites should refuse to run ANY BAPCO benchmarks until WME is fixed, or BAPCO substitutes a different encoder which is functional."

SysMark 2002 is just around the corner. I'm guessing it will include the fix. We'll see how popular opinion of this benchmark is, should Intel continue to carry an advantage. My guess is that the support for this benchmark will be directly proportional to how much of an advantage AMD has on this benchmark.

Petz, it used to be that the ZDNet benchmarks such as Winstone were considered unfairly biased toward Intel. I remember when the transition from Winstone 97 to Winstone 98 showed a bigger improvement on Intel processors over AMD. This was "proof" that Intel influenced the ZDNet benchmarks, according to the AMD fans back then.
