TweakTown has posted benchmarks of the upcoming Whistler 2001.
A few hardware techie sites around the World Wide Web have taken their own various looks and previews at Microsoft Whistler 2001 - a new OS from Microsoft based on the NT Kernel. One thing most of them have forgot was the inclusion of benchmarking results compared to current Operating Systems. So, we have taken the time to do some short benchmarking and testing with SiSoft Sandra to show the performance different concerning CPU Speed, CPU MultiMedia and Memory, compared to Microsoft Windows 2000 and Microsoft "Windows" Whistler 2001. Keep in mind, we have an early alpha (build 2250) version of Whistler 2001 that will most likely not be the exact same upon the full retail release by Microsoft later next year, so benchmarking results will probably be different when that time arises. This short comparison article will tell us, mostly in pictorial form, how much faster (or slower) Microsoft Whistler 2001 is compared to Microsoft Windows 2000 - Will upgrading to Whistler 2001 sacrifice my performance?
