- I don't particularly want MiNT on my AB40, so I'll let somebody else
- worry about this. I don't trust MiNT as much as I'd like to - even on
- a 68030. The MultiTos desktop is just a little to flaky for my liking,
- especially when you are developing for long periods at a time. It just
- freezes up when you least expect it! :/

-
- It's not really worthwhile running tests without it. Gem is so crap and
- non-cacheable. :I
-
- > Why is the GEM Window and VDI Scroll so slow?? Is this becuase of the falcon bus?
-
- It's not that slow - over twice as fast for something requiring a lot of drawing
- and copying!

-
- What? At 410% for a divide? That's amazing Magnus! The divide is the one thing
- that's almost impossible to optimise as you can't do a parallel version. If the
- divide is this fast, it's a good sign for everything else! :)
-
- I think the divide is quite impressive myself...

-
- You don't need any of that stuff for 36Mhz (or even 40Mhz if you are lucky
- like him) - you just solder a new clock to U65 and remove a coil. Easy and
- cheap too! :)
-
- I think this is what he has done here...
