Yes
<< 1 10000 FOR i NEXT >>
28 sec for a 4 bits 6 MHz processor
and
:Prgm
:Local i
:For i,1,10000
:EndFor
:EndPrgm
67 sec for a 32 bits 10 MHz processor
My opinion is TI should improve their ROM. The TI89 should take less than 1 sec
to do this loop if the object 'binary integer' would exist on the TI89 and it
should be !!! 'binary integer' is the basic element of any program and it would
improve the speed of programs by a factor a 100 !

No comment. Specially when you know that lists on the HP48GX are much more
powerful than the list of the TI89 !!!!
I bought a TI89, but I though it was well programmed. Today, I don't know if it
was the right choice...
