New Macbook Air 13" - i7
First one is with 10.7 - 5652
Second one is with 10.7.1 - 5821
So maybe the reports that the update makes Lion snappier has something to it.
Wife's new computer - much faster than my 2009 17" MBP.

15% battery, Safari and a couple of other apps open - still cracking 10K! Gotta love new Macs.

Old Mac was/is a black 2008 2.4 C2D Mackbook, best score was around 3400.

Looks like I have some catching up to do.

Obzi - please provide your 32-bit score in order to be included in the results board.

15" MBP '06 2.33 C2D 4GB 10.7; 13" MBA '14 1.8 i7 8GB 10.11; 21" iMac '13 2.9 i5 8GB 10.11; 6S
Even though my MBA is almost twice as fast as my old MBP, these 12,000 scores almost make me feel impotent.

Feel like I need to build a new monster Win7 box o/c'd to 4+Ghz or something.

Benched the new iMac this morning.

It might have been a tad bit higher if I didn't have Turbo Tax and Firefox open in the background, but who knows.

Too many...
I was thinking, would it be too hard to create/edit the list of rankings to include the model identifier for each mac? I think this might help people(like me) who are looking to buy something. I've suddenly got the urge to get a MacPro, and I've got my eyeballs Pigoo3's MacPro:)

Or, does anyone know of a list that has similar kinds of Mac rankings somewhere else that doesn't require someone to input their own stats?

Tell you what - you get me the list of Model ID's that correlate and I'll update the results - with the latest scores and will add a column showing Model IDs.

Sorry, to be honest though, if I was knowledgeable about that, I wouldn't have asked, but would've given it anyways if I knew it could help. I'm sure it wouldn't be hard for the people that already submitted their info to also reply with their number that identifies what specific model/gen release it is. Might be a burden for you though:( I was asking because I'm looking for a used MacPro(urge), but can't really tell the difference between the different models available for sale, and the test results that I see on here and other lists...that's when it hit me that this info could be useful to know for others too. I'm not looking for the best, but also not the worst. A MacPro with a score around ~10k.

I thought I would give this a try... It's not as great as others, but seems pretty good. I know I love this thing. It's my first Mac and I have had it for around five day.

Well - it'd be some legwork for me - which I can't get to for the next couple of weeks - I'm in the process of moving. I'm sure all the info can be extracted using mactracker.

Wow, my current MacBook only scores 2550. This however is really encouraging for me as six years after it left the factory it can still barely do what I want/need it to do so the new Pro I'm getting this summer which should be somewhere around the 8.5K range will do everything I need for quite a while:D

I wouldn't need to a score test to know how my Mac Mini PPC G4 stacks up to your Macs :p It's pretty ancient, runs decent and it gets it's physical usage! I do abuse it (with having loads of apps running at one time, Photoshop, Lightroom, Office 08 and Itunes) It does chug but by today's standards it's a dope compared to what you guys have. But I love it. Until it breaks down from excessive usages - I won't upgrade just yet. :p

I hate this PC. My G5 ate it for breakfast as far as benchmarks go.
