[net.micro] 8 Mhz 8088 vs. IBM-AT on real work

augenbra@udel-louie.ARPA (06/01/85)

	I have not used the 8 Mhz Z-100, but have had a lot of experience
with wordstar and epsilon (and other more useful things) on both an 8 Mhz
Sperry, and the stock 6 Mhz IBM PC-AT.  The screen update, and the times
that it takes to do things like move a block of text (in memory, no disk
access) is very noticeably faster on the AT.  So there.
