SysMark2002 is more of an extension of SysMark2001 rather then a whole new benchmark. The applications used during testing have been updated and most importantly for AMD users, the new SysMark2002 uses the Windows Media Encoder 7.1 which supports the AthlonXP's SSE instructions.

BapCo SysMark 2002 Benchmark Results
Internet Content (FSB/Memory) Sysmarks Ranking
1. P4ES - 100/266 232
2. P4ES - 132/352 300

Office Productivity (FSB/Memory)

1 P4ES - 100/266 127
2. P4ES - 132/352 154

At stock speeds, the P4ES performs poorly but it's due to the relative low clock speed of the P4. When the FSB Is upped to 132 MHz, performance jumps about 25%!

Content Creation Winstone 2001 keeps multiple applications open at once and switches among those applications. Content Creation Winstone 2001's activities focus on what we call "hot spots," periods of activity that make your PC really work--the times where you're likely to see an hourglass or a progress bar.

Business Winstone is a system-level, application-based benchmark that measures a PC's overall performance when running today's Windows-based 32-bit applications on Windows 98 ME, Windows NT 4.0 (SP6 or later), Windows 2000, Windows Me, or Windows XP which runs real applications through a series of scripted activities and uses the time a PC takes to complete those activities to produce its performance scores.

Winstone 2001 Benchmark Results
Content Creation (FSB/Memory) Scores Ranking
1. P4ES - 100/266 58.5
2. P4ES - 132/352 69.7

Business Winstone (FSB/Memory)

1 P4ES - 100/266 38.1
2. P4ES - 132/352 58.9

Using older software like the ones the Winstone benchmarks use isn't a very good idea. There is no code for the Pentium 4 processor so performance suffers quite a bit.
