How does SPEC validate numbers that it publishes?
Results published on the SPEC Web site have been reviewed by SPEC members for compliance with the SFS 3.0 run and disclosure rules, but there is no monitoring beyond that compliance check. The vendors that performed the tests and submitted the performance numbers have sole responsibility for the results. SPEC is not responsible for any measurement or publication errors.
