Lines: 15 So a Sun Sparc 1 runs at over 80 MIPS then? Are you sure? A Sparc 1 runs at between 8 and 12.5 MIPS. (I'm not certain) A HP 400t runs over 8 MIPS. Compare. Please do not make referances to speed differences. There is virtually no difference. If you use sparcs, fine, be happy with them. If you use HPs, fine enjoy them too. There are too many squabbles like this betweem users of any computer (Mine's bigger than your's - So? Mine's faster then your's - So? Mine's got better graphics than your's). It just gets a bit ridiculous after a while does it not? BJ
