From Leonid Mishankov To All 16 October 1999

Greetings, All!

No, but this is cool...

I had dosx in Dikiy using NMI, CPS was always 1000. Concerned
with this fact, I installed dosx _without_ NMI, after which CPS became 1300!

I'm just dragging myself! What's the trick, who can say?

S!ncerely Yours,
Leonid Mishankov.

NMI processing eats up time... Some INTs are not processed due to
the arrival of NMI. And time is calculated by ints, probably...

In any case, the stopwatch will save the giant of thought...

Sincerely,
