I need a benchmark for PC & Mac that I can download and run (and remember I have 56k modem)!



Thanks.

    Cinebench is an aweful benchmark for today's Macs.



    1. It's over 2 years old

    2. It runs in OS 9 which means it will bypass more mature drives for newer chipsets such as the GeForce4MX in OS X. OpenGL is also faster in OS X regardless of the supported chipset.

    3. Cinebench has absolutely zero Altivec support

    4. Does not relate well to real world use since it is primarily an FP test.
