Weren't you comparing the gs to an 8088?  Yes you were.  I'll be the first to
admit the gs doesn't hold a candle to a '286, '386, or '486.  But an 8088?
Try your benchmarks again.

I too have been using MS-DOS machines, Macs, Amigas as well as a IIgs.  For
the most part I'm jealous, but not about a machine with an 8088, 8086, or
V-30.  If you think the original IBM PC and its clones are so much faster,
turn off you gs for a while and use one exclusively for a few months.  I
guarentee you'll get frustrated as hell with the sloth.
