- Sorry for posting incomplete information last time.
- The fact is, I didn't read the actual article in the PC mag I was
- quoting (I think it was Byte), but I was referring to a chart that was
- reproduced in the German Amiga mag "Amiga Magazin" in an article
- about 68o4o/o6o/PPC differences. So I cannot say what benchmarks
- and what systems were exactly used in the respective test carried out
- by Byte.
- Sorry again, next time I'll refrain from posting something which causes
- confusion due to lack of information.
