I apologise for not looking after this project more than I did. I was pretty good initially but then life does its thing and you don't have the time anymore unamused face
So I put my latest copy of the spreadsheet on Google docs. I hope I got the permissions right. Anyone with this link below should be able to edit the spreadsheet!

Quick Start
1. Make a DOS boot disk (Right click on a:, select format and tick "Make startup disk"
2. Unzip and copy the attached file (3dbench.zip) onto your boot disk
3. Boot from your bootdisk
4. Type 3DBENCH.BAT if you have a 486 or slower or type 3DBENCH2.BAT if you have a Pentium or higher. On Slot 1 machines enter FASTVID.BAT before you run 3DBENCH2.BAT*
5. Use blows template to post your results (Just like the example, no spaces please it will make importing the data much easier for me)
* FASTVID unlocks video performance on Slot 1 machines
Rules
This is mostly a CPU benchmark, although the choice of video card (especially the Graphics Bus) does have an impact.
CPUs are grouped into "Mainboard classes". Anything goes. If you use a upgrade chip in a 386 board, the results will go into the "386 Mainboard class".
Same goes for Slot 1 adapters.
