Brian, what do you make of this?

Anand has released his review of the ctx score and suggests the core improvements result in a 7% performance gain. The accompanying benchmarks under winstone 99 still leave the chip below that of the PII, however he claims the test is unfairly biased to intc chips by using multitasking and other chores that optimize results for intc chips. Do you think winstone is a unfair bench? If so, is there a better bench that utilizes real world apps versus only those that highlight the intc strengths. Please let me know. Thanks.
