Eracer, Many people here believe the actual performance difference is only half or less than the benchmarks indicate. I don't. Do you think they chose the benchmark at random? Y/N Do you think performance mean/average is above? Y/N Do you think performance M/A is below? Y/N Do you think performance M/A is ~ the same? Y/N Do you think of this as: A) Just their normal practice? B) Unusual and strange? Will Intel meet the upper range of its modified guidance for the quarter? Y/N Finally an essay question: What was Intel's purpose of making this benchmark? Extra Credit: How could they augment such a benchmark toward the end of that purpose?
