Nope. Not even then. I don't care who wins which benchmark with which platform. Doesn't matter to me at all.
Benchmarks will say whatever the test was setup to say. End of story. By picking the benchmark suite to run, the app to run the test in all they way down to the files that are chosen for processing.
Just like statistics, they will say what the tester wants them to say. I therefor have no interest. Apple skews theirs, Microsoft skews theirs, so do Intel and AMD,...
I have a simple test for computer horsepower, does it do what I need it to do? If the answer is yes, then it's fast enough, if not then I move up the power/speed scale until it does.
For the grammer police, I meant "I couldn't care less" as in "I don't care at all".
