I ftp'd it from there a few weeks ago, along with winmark, and I found
that benchmark was buggy when it came to memory testing.  I was really
pissed after clearing 40 megs of hard drive space and I couldn't get it
to give me a DosMark rating because it crapped out during parts of the
memory testing.
