    It is lower because WEI sucks. Seriously, use real benchmark programs before you wonder. 3dMark, PCMark, HDTune...those are real, WEI is fake.

    Yes, but it's designed to suck... so I would call that feature. :D :cool:

    Newer drivers might pump the WEI up a bit ...but yeah, it's not a very good indicator of laptop speed or...well, anything :p
