Just a heads up that all the old PCMark and 3DMark benchmarks suites are now free.
PCMark 2002 through PCMark7
3DMark 99 through 2011
See their legacy page for the downloads and registration info:
https://benchmarks.ul.com/legacy-benchmarks
They did that in 2017 already. They are free since then.
Actually most of these benchmarks were made free long before 2017. 3DMark Vantage was added to the legacy page in 2017.

Well, I did not know that. Am I the only one?

Well, pirated versions were circulating for decades now, so who cares =P

Well, it's a nice gesture of them, even if it's also free advertising. The software was unlikely to make any money, but if retro folks are using the software for benchmarking and stress testing, including those who make online content, then others will be more likely to think favorably of 3D Mark when they see the current version for sale.
Cool, looks like they're still updating this page with "new" ones too. 3DMark 2011 was posted within the last couple months at least.
