Redundancy helps to ensure accuracy, which is why we use SYSmark 2000 in addition to Content Creation 2001. The benchmark offers a strong set of twelve application benchmarks covering a wide range of Internet Content Creation and Office Productivity application categories. According to BAPCo, the strength of SYSmark 2000 lies in its workloads, which reflect actual usage of real applications within the new computing paradigms.

Everything continues to turn up roses for the Duron, which beats the Celeron once again. Both Internet Content Creation and Office Productivity continue to point to the Duron as the performance leader despite relatively poor OEM adoption.
