Hello Net;

Sorry for the repost but it was pointed out to me that I neglected to
state which mode was used while running win3.0, the chart now includes
the mode.

FYI, Using PC Magazine's test application for MSWindows I got the following
results.  This application is called Display Information, version 1.20
written by C. Petzold.  I must note that I did get the warning about this
app not being win3.0 compatible but ran it anyway.

The Box I ran it on:
	EPSON equity 386/20
	4 Meg ram
	NEC/MultiSync 2A
	90Meg ESDI harddrive

This box hits the following benchmarks at the C:\> prompt
	4042 Dhrystones
	81.8 Whetstones
	2.52 Mips
	22.0 Mhz Landmark

The setup:
	The program manager or MSDOS Exec was iconed and the only
	application running was the PC Magazine tests.  Options
	were 1000 executions per test.  ie: 1000 lines, 1000 rect...
	All results are given in milliseconds.

The results:
