Benchmark Results

* Incomplete, failed at the Mandreel test.

As seen above, the latest build of the Opera 12.5 web browser (both x86 and x86-64) scored 0 points because it refused to load any pages. Therefore, we have decided to use older build, which while failed to complete the benchmark, still managed to beat IE10.

Nothing new to see here, folks. However, for some strange reason, Firefox 15 scored lower than its predecessor.
