[dba-Tech] The Windows Surface Pro

Hi Hans:

This discussion has been going back and forth for quite a while and everyone
can point to dramatic results. One shows that IE10 has superior results to
Chrome and another shows Chrome has far superior results to IE. 

Which one is correct? Which result can be trusted or at least deemed
impartial? Where would/could these internet performance tests be made?

So where is this independent, unaffiliated benchmarking tool and what are
the results?

Jim

Hi Jim,

I wouldn't trust a benchmark from Mozilla blindly. You should test the
performance with an independent, unaffiliated benchmarking tool.
