BYTE is a rag, and I have no respect for the bozos that put it out.
They haven't had anytihng worth soap for years on end, and they publish
that idiot Pournelle who is still living in the 70s with his 8 inch
disks.  Gawd!

Anyway, I wouldn't trust their benchamarks (or the ones in the august
issue with the Mac II vs. PS/2 model 80) as far as one of their
magazines would fly.

But, what do I know?

Pete
