I just clicked on it (I would have earlier, but I'm not on my PC). What a crock of shit! It has processor ratings in megahertz. Give me a damn break! Athlon XPs run at lower clock speeds than Pentium 4s but stilll keep up (and pass) P4's in most tests. Speed means nothing since AMD entered the market years ago.

On top of that, it's asking how much memory your videocard has. Again, who gives a shit? Let me guess: it's gonna tell me that my GeForce FX 5200 LE 256 MB is gonna run HL2 better than a 128 MB Radeon 9800 Pro. Ha ha. This test is pure tomfoolery! I can't believe they'd publish it. I'm not even gonna get started on the RAM amounts, either...can anyone say "Why isn't my PC running it good with 1 GB of PC100 RAM???"
