Sorry if this shouldn't be posted here, but I couldn't think of anywhere
else to post it. I have recently installed dBase IV and encountered their
hard drive test. It provides some interesting numbers, but are meaningless
without a reference to compare them to. I wonder if anyone has
run these tests for a variety of hard drives and seen the results 
published.

I would be curious to hear 1) CPU 2) disk drive&controller
3) performance results
for other users of dBase IV. It only takes a few seconds to invoke
their test..

Any help would be appreciated.
