It is amazing to me that people would actually try to use benchmarks
to compare any kind of technology!   It is _also_ difficult for me to
believe that anyone gives credence at all to them!  Go John!!!!!
Please continue to ridicule these idiots!!!!!

BTW John, if we don't benchmark then how _can_ we tell if our SCSI
drives are faster than those absurd IDE drives?  I assume just by the
SCSI designation?  Because they are used in highly accessed servers?


"I used to benchmark the gas mileage of my Plymouth Horizon against my
Chrysler 300M but the Horizon always won!  Since _everyone_ knows a
Chrysler is a better than a Horizon, I _knew_ my results were
flawed!!"  "I have SEEN  the light!!!"
