Nee, helemaal niet vreemd... Het was een (zeer goede trouwens) design keuze
die leidde tot het feit dat je in VB zonder probleem And, Or ed. zowel voor
logical als bitwise operaties kan gebruiken zonder enige overhead
whatsoever. De reden waarom het nu net twee bytes is, is omdat de eerste
versies van VB 16-bit waren.
