Content Creation Winstone 2001 keeps multiple applications open at once and switches among those applications. Content Creation Winstone 2001's activities focus on what we call "hot spots," periods of activity that make your PC really work--the times where you're likely to see an hourglass or a progress bar.

Business Winstone is a system-level, application-based benchmark that measures a PC's overall performance when running today's Windows-based 32-bit applications on Windows 98 ME, Windows NT 4.0 (SP6 or later), Windows 2000, Windows Me, or Windows XP which runs real applications through a series of scripted activities and uses the time a PC takes to complete those activities to produce its performance scores.

Winstone 2001 Benchmark Results
	Content Content	Score	Ranking
1.	1.66 GHz (T-Bred)	74.8
2.	2 GHz (T-Bred)	82.8
3.	2.25 GHz (T-Bred)	86.5
	Business Winstone
1.	1.66 GHz (T-Bred)	51.2
2.	2 GHz (T-Bred)	58
4.	2.25 GHz (T-Bred)	62.3

Using older software, the performance differences are much closer.

SPECviewPerf 6.1.2	Source: SPEC.org

SPECviewperf™ is a portable OpenGL performance benchmark program written in C. It was developed by IBM. Later updates and significant contributions were made by SGI, Digital and other SPECopc^SM project group members. SPECviewperf provides a vast amount of flexibility in benchmarking OpenGL performance. Currently, the program runs on most implementations of UNIX, Windows NT, Windows 95/98 and Linux. Higher numbers equate to better performance.
