I must say that is one lovely screenshot cover. Just thought I should point that out

Also never heard of UL.. hopefully they don't fuck up Futuremark. Hopefully this even allows Futuremark to hire more employees to create better/more benchmarks knowing they have a big investor behind them. Can't wait to see how we enthusiasts will benefit(and hardware won't);)
 
When I first glanced at the headline, I thought it read FurMark acquisition by UL. That makes more sense, software to test if a video card could catch fire. Futuremark, and UL just does not make any sense. UL is a safety testing organization. It's like a tea company buying an ice cream truck. The only thing I can see coming from this is a few releases that will get the benchmark community up in arms and when the funding dries up, we will see the return of the Mad Onion as a mainstream product name.
