	Get a Load of this, everyone (May 1986 Byte, pg 18)

"Inside, there is very little support for the unbound power of the
68000. In the low-resolution mode, those great graphics chips steal 
almost 75 percent (Yes!) of the possible CPU time that could be
used for other real-computer things"	-Mike M Farnsworth

	Somebody educate this guy... please... and That's only 1/10 of the
nonsense he said in his letter in BYTE.

	The other thing in the BYTE issue that really made me puke was their
article "Easy C".  The author attempts to convince the reader that C would
be much better if you didn't use it's constructs .. replacing them with
#define equivalants which make C look like Pascal.  Next, he'll be telling
us not to use pointers.  Give me a break!
