So you mean that you can equal clockcycles with instructions executed on any
CPU?

I don't think so.

And as far as I remember it was you who stood up and claimed that you would
like to see a HP beat your program for a while back.
Well......have a look.

Asembler isn't cheating.........it's just fast. Why don't you port your
program to TI's asembler (or get someone to do it for you) - that would
speed things up considerably.
But please - stop comparing old TI calculators (or any TI's for that matter)
with HP machines. TI calcs have always been, and will always be, inferior to
HP.
