Hi Rod,

It doesn't, though, Rod. You're wrong. For comparison's sake, I ran a (c)
1994 version of Coretest and it reported 1.65mb/sec.

 RS> And it aint good enough for Conner neither, even they dont claim
 RS> thats the rate. Funny that. Corse Grant knows better than Conner.

'Corse' Rod knows better than Oxford.
