Dan, re:The crooks at Intel should get some jail time - this is pure, unadulterated fraud. P4 is crap, and snake oil merchants at Intel faked results to sell their trash. Makes you wonder about some of the Intel pumpers on the message boards too. Could get kinda quiet around here soon. Maybe even a few "promotions". [TM-Process Boy] Steve

The crooks at Intel should get some jail time - this is pure, unadulterated fraud. It really makes you wonder about even the average Intel engineer. I ask myself.....could I (if I were a software engineer) participate in such a blatant attempt to influence benchmark results? The answer is quite simply.... NO. No f*cking way! And yet, I get the distinct feeling that Intel has no such problems getting people to perform these tasks. In fact, I get the impression they gleefully jump to such tasks so as to more quickly earn their "badge of dishonor" This kind of stuff just makes me want to puke. AMD should force all Bapco participating companies to either publicly approve of the current (with all of the AMD exposed irregularities) process of generating benchmarks or commit to a total revamping of the benchmark process which at the very least must be totally open source.

Oh Dan, There you go again. Jumping conclusions. Nobody uses those 8 old Photoshop components. So they were replaced with the thirteen new ones that represent how people really use their computers. You do run Photoshop at least 25% of the time, don't you Dan3? Monica ;-]
