Still mulling over that dv2 purchase for my daughter. Ah well, benchmarks like the one on jkontherun make it easier to spend the money. Especially when they make the advantage of the dedicated graphics even more obvious.

Just wondering though: is CrystalMark a good benchmarking program? I always see people here use 3dMark (or at least, mention it). Here are the figures btw:

CrystalMark: 39524
3DMark: 1,520

One thing I've noticed though: the difference of the dv2 from the rest of competing notebooks is much smaller in 3DMark than in CrystalMark. Why?

I'm not entirely sure, but I think the numbers are vastly different because both benchmarks use entirely different scales. Obviously, the higher the better, so if the dv2 compares favorably with other, similar computers, then go for it! :)
