Doubtful Brandon Van Every gets anything. He's already demonstrated
a profound ego in questions as to processor benchmarks, willfully
disregarding many well established ones in favor of *ONLY* some pet
project he couldn't bother to successfully port to Win95.

You must remember that Brandon Van Every has a severe problem
admitting he's totally offbase (big-O notation discussion here about
'constants', for example), and it's pointless to try and argue with
him much, except to continually point out how foolish the corners he's
argued himself into are. In other words, take everything he says with
a grain of salt, and double-check it against reality.

At least deliberate usenet trolls are fun to mess with; Brandon
appears to just be offensively clueless.
