     Just for the hell of it, one evening I fired up the Transformer
on my 1000.  Under this fake MS-DOS environment I ran Z80MU, a Z-80
CP/M simulator.  As if two levels of software emulation (68000 ->
8088 -> Z-80) weren't bad enough, I then ran BASIC-80, the CP/M BASIC
interpreter.  When I typed PRINT SIN(.707) it managed to come back
with the correct answer - eight seconds later.

     Afterwards, of course, I apologized to my 68000 for abusing
it so badly.  :-)
