Hai there!!
Has anybody ever tried using landmark speed test or si speed test  ???
Are they the perfect measurement of your system's perfomance ?? I am using
Gateway 2000 386 20 Mz machine with 80ns ( that's what they claim to give
me ) and when I ran both those test, the result were something like
20.5 for landmark and 21.1 for SI. And, just now, I read an ads by PC BRAND
machine of the same 20Mz, and they claim that their machine achieve about
26.* for landmark and 23 for SI.  Why are the result so different  ???
Has anybody out there who owns a Gateway 2000 especially 20Mz machine ever
tried using these tests ??? How's your result compare to mine ??? I would
appriciate if you guys can send email me your test result. I am thinking
about asking the Gateway's technical person about the average test results
for their machines if there is any. 

For your guys info,I just bought my Gateway machine about a month ago, and 
I don't have serious problems with their machine. I am pretty satisfied with 
their machine.

I'll appreciate your comments.
