Yeah, right, it's a cult. Dissenters are killed on sight.
Take a look at this map The Church of Scientology is on the corner of Bel-Red and 24th. The land in between is owned by a hospital (not affiliated with Microsoft.)
Need a conspiracy theory? Just south of 24th is Uwajimaya, the local Japanese grocery store. That can only mean one thing: Yes, Sony bought Microsoft! That's why they need modchips for the X-Box--they're turning it into the PS3!
This benchmark is composed of various programs such as gcc and infozip distributed with source code. It's open source. It's respected. And it's already available. There's really little need to put together a new open source benchmark.
Marketing will always find a "good" benchmark. Dev/QA rely on real benchmarks.
