I think of most value would be a benchmark that joe-programmer can download
and test for himself. Is this benchmark available for private use ?
Why would a benchmark need a tool (like Benchmark Factory) ?
I think an easy doityourself benchmark would be an extremely good
advertising effort if it holds what Xpert Inc. sais.
