Vista is being forced down our goddamn throats and it's utter BS.

It does require vista but not a dx10 graphics card. The PCMark vantage is testing your whole system. I was confused and thought it was the 3d version testing gaming but apparently theres another version of that coming out?

btw my score was 2914 the lowest score out of similar systems. Which makes sense I guess since I don't overclock.

Well the reason they are making a dx10, vista only version is because 3dmark 06 is already a good standard for xp dx9 benchmarking. They explain it better than I could in the developer diary video at http://www.futuremark.com/3dmarkvantage/.
