<> I benchmarked a S-100 machine with an 8086 running at 8 Mhz using the Harmonic Series benchmark proposed in net.micro.mac and posted to net.sources.mac. Most Mac benchmarks were over 20 seconds. Microsoft C came in at 13 seconds. When I lowered the clock rate to 5 Mhz and plugged in a 8087, it took less than 1 second to run. Anyone with a 8 Mhz 68000 machine and Motorola's floating point processor want to give this a try? Sam Chin allegra!cmcl2!acf4!tsc2597 tsc2597.acf4@nyu
