Just installed the latest version of Vista (and it seems to be improving nicely, if losing a bit of stability), and their integrated performance tester seems to be far less crappy than in any of the previous beta versions. I was wondering if anyone else has played with this yet...might the vista component scores become commonly reported benchmarks like things like sandra and everest when comparing different CPU's/RAM modules/other things? Here are the results my new Conroe build got on the pre-RC1 tester:

...I suspect that nothing is allowed to score 6.0 or higher, though I'm not sure on that.
