My Specs:

12" 1ghz Al
768MB RAM
Panther
60GB 4200 RPM Hard Drive


My Xbench results are at

Xbench Results

The main score came out to be 88.15. Compared to others with the same specs, this seems kinda low. What do you guys think? Should I be concerned?

Before I installed my 512MB RAM, VPC would barely run, but now it runs a lot better. However, I have not seen that much of a speed difference in other apps. Could I have have gotten bad RAM??
