[comp.sys.apple2] We've done this before...

Look, let's not be stupid.  This has been discussed before, here on this very
net.  Speed is irrelevant.  It has been argued down to assembly code, and it
has been pointed out that even at the assembly level, you can argue against
the benchmarks.  Why?  I don't remember.  I actually seem to recall that
some people (possibly Todd Whitesel) had actually come up with code that ran
faster on the 65816 than on the 68000.  Personally, I think this is stupid.
