Futuremark have released a new version of PCMark. They are not calling it 2007 or 2008, but call it "PCMark Vantage"

There's a free version to download, but this will only allow you to run it once and I don't know if it will even give you a score!

Here's the bad news. It will only run on Vista!

Minimum System requirements

* Intel� Pentium 4 or equivalent AMD� processor
o SSE2 support
o 256MB of graphics memory
o Shader Model 3.0 compliant graphics card for the GPU image manipulation test
* 1.7GB of free hard disk space (NTFS File System)
* 1GB of System Memory
* Microsoft Windows Vista - Ultimate / Home Premium / Home Basic / Enterprise / Business

It's a 664MB download, which you can get here

It has support for single core, dual core, quad core and also V8.
The basic edition which they claim will allow you to run it multiple times, get a score and also publish it on "ORB" will set you back $6.95

I'm downloading it now and if I have time this evening, I'll install Vista and see what's it's like.

odd that its only for vista. maybe its just to test it out

I'm looking to try this out too, but with the new ubuntu 7.10, hell gate London beta and this now, Comcast must be like wtf is he doing

Don't get deactivated

Trust me I would tear them a new one if they dare to do that. Fios is making huge inroads in my home town, Comcast is losing a ton of business, a politely placed "I think I'll call Verizon" has got me many many concessions from Comcast
