Re: Looks like the Pentium 4 is a much, much faster machine

Looks like Enron made a lot more money than Intel.

Bapco got caught cooking the books in Sysmark 2001, so for Sysmark 2002, they made the content of their benchmarks a secret. It's as though WorldCom starting saying they were making $3 Billion per quarter, all of a sudden, but stopped releasing any information about sales, costs, or cash flow - just reported a huge profit and insisted that you take their word for it.

If you're going to use Intel's mystery meat benchmarks, why bother benchmarking at all?

Here are some results from freely available open source benchmarks:
