- I have tried Saber C++ on a SparcStation with 16MB of RAM. I was far from
- impressed. And on a 12MB Sparc it was so slow it was simply unusable. Think
- C on my mac SE/30 is SUBSTANTIALLY faster. I imagine Borland C++ on any 386
- box is likewise much faster. And of course Think C or Borland C++ cost
- about a tenth of the price of Saber C++.
