Well, since I am in the mood for something random, and while lots of people would like to call Xbench "crap", let's post our scores here to compare them to our MacRumors friends! 🙂

My systems' scores:

iMac C2D: 106.42 on OS 10.4.9

2GHz Core 2 Duo/1GB RAM/120GB stock HD/128MB ATI Radeon X1600

PowerBook G4 12" 44.43 on OS 10.4.9

1.5GHz G4/1.25GB RAM/80GB Stock HD/64MB GeForce FX Go5200

PowerMac G3 B&W Score: 12.57 on OS 10.4.9

400MHz G3/512MB RAM/6GB HD/16MB ATI Rage 128

Go to http://www.xbench.com/ to download it - its about 250kb
 
iMac C2D 2.33Ghz 2GB RAM 256MB X1600 --> 140.71

Pretty good considering I got a near top of the line iMac.
 
Macbook c2d 2GHz 2GB stock 80GB HDD 87.38

so then i closed all applications inclucing Firefox and
widgets restarted and ran it again and got 47.78

very strange indeed!


so i unchecked the Hard Disk and got: 143.63


NOW I GOT NO IDEA AT ALL WHAT MY RATING REALLY IS. I guess it's like when i had only one clock in the house i always knew what time it was. then i got a couple more clocks and now I never know what time it is.

This must be why some people call it "crap"
Perhaps the best thing to do would be to run it 5 times or something and get averages.

On my iBook G3 (900Mhz, 384MB RAM.. read my sig) I got 18.33 (this is just from one go. When I do it again I'll edit this and tell you my average.)
iBook G3, such a muscly computer 🙄

edit: yep pretty much around 18 every time
 
MacBook 1.83 C2D
86.4 Internal disk
61.36 to iPod 5th Generation 30 GB (USB)
68.11 to iPod 3rd Generation 15 GB (FireWire)
141.37 No Disk test
 
PowerPC power!!!

iMac G5 from 4 years ago - 105.70
Apple should have stuck with PowerPC.
CPU score with Altivec = 246.28
 
55.44

Machine specs in signature

That score seems pretty bad considering 4GB of RAM and 7200RPM HD?

EDIT: I tried each of the test individually and found out why my score is so bad. The UI test gives me a score of around 15 each time I run it. Anyone know what could be causing this? Also, the disk test gives me a score around 60 each time, should my HD be performing better?
