Included in this build is an extensive collection of drivers and the exclusive sidebar. Glass is also a feature that we all have come to respect and love, along with the 3D flip. The official version number is 6.0 Version 5342.winmain_idx04.060321-1730. Internet Explorer 7.0 is build Version 7.0.5342.2.

  1. Performance rating by LiquidCoooled · · Score: 5, Interesting

    In the performance rating screenshot, they give seperate ratings for CPU graphics etc then give a total overall figure.
    Something doesn't make sense:

    Processor: P4 3.0GHZ 4.3
    Memory: 1023mb 5.2
    Hard Drive: 179GB free 4.8
    Graphics Radeon 9600 4.3
    Graphics Mem: 126mb 3.7

    Overall Rating: 3

    Wouldn't it be reasonable to expect this machine to have a 4?

    Or is graphics memory the only meaningful metric?
