How about "MILES". I suppose I could have said "KILOMETERS", a more exacting measurement. >And then we get to figure out what Dave might be speaking of.... My new car. See, I got this great new car, and had a terrible breakin period to wait through before I could try out the performance. Frustrating. You wouldn't want to get a shiny new 68030 system, only to find out that you had to stay below 1 MIPS for the first 300 billion instructions. But since then, I have achieved 0-60 in about 6.3 seconds, and I'm working on 138 MPH. >|| Kurt Tappe (215) 363-9485 || Amigas, Macs, IBM's, C-64's, NeXTs, || -- Dave Haynie Commodore-Amiga (Amiga 3000) "The Crew That Never Rests" {uunet|pyramid|rutgers}!cbmvax!daveh PLINK: hazy BIX: hazy "I can't drive 55" -Sammy Hagar
