  A few more data points have been added to the list of
operating systems and Oberon implementations concerning the
issue of "Cycles Per Second".  For those just tuning in, I
define "Cycle Time" to be the time in seconds from one call of an
Oberon task to the next call of the same task when the number
of tasks in the Oberon loop is fixed.  The reciprical of Cycle Time
is the number of Cycles Per Second.  
  I have added a column CPU MHz which is the processor clock speed.
This is my last posting of data for this thread.
