Why not try prototyping on a Mac in C sometime? You'd be surprised how
much time UNIX pisses away with its N-pass memory-thrashing
compilers and ASCII include files.
I'd like to see ANY 16Mhz 68020 UNIX box compile 45,000 lines per
minute, then bind & launch 5 seconds later (I'm talking about
THINK/LightspeedC for the mac). 8-).
