Any programmer ever tried changing the timer chip to get a 1 microsecond
delay between the different cpus?   Well, the smalles I can get in C (Borland)
is a "delay" function which only gives me 1 millisecond.  I need to get down
to microseconds.  a "for-loop" works, but I don't know to measure it exactly
the delay and it fails when you move from a 80386 33mhz to a 25mhz to a 20mhz.

Hmm. anyone with any idea. appreciate it.  E-mail is fine.
