- I found a benchmark from PCMAG on Wuarchive. It was a set of a Window's
- graphic test and one for PM (os2 version unknown).
-
- I'll test it and see what it's like.
-
- BTW, the benchmarks were under the /msdos/windows dir. (at least I am
- pretty sure)

- Laws of Computer Programming
-
- 1. Any given program, by the time it is up and running is obsolete.
-
- 2. Any given program costs more and takes longer than planned and budgeted.
-
- 3. Inside every large program is a small program struggling to get out.
-
- 4. Program complexity grows until it exceeds the capability of the

- maintain it.
-
- 5. At the source of every error which is blamed on the computer, you
- will find at least two
- human errors, including the error of blaming it on the computer.
