    I kept checking back after 24 hrs for the update. Glad you finally added it - just what I was looking for. But I did expect it by end of day Jul 2 (within 24 hrs of article post as you promised, which was Jul 1).

    Goddamn it, why must all of the benchmark charts be in Flash format these days?? It is a supreme annoyance, especially since they are nothing but simple charts. A GIF can easily do it, with far less annoyance for those who don't have Flash and don't want it.
