Okay, I think it's time someone ask /you/ to take a look at "computer science and engineering".

Thank god you aren't designing microprocessors. 64-bit machines don't use 32-bit adders. They use 64-bit adders, which is why it's virtually identical in performance. I'm not playing this stupid game any more. Joe Nathan is nothing but a troll. :p - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGqn+u9CaO5/Lv0PARAsM6AKCciFtDuM9GBDsNO8970yVy4loGZQCgpQ+p 2IBpK0zafMrryy9A6eVxD8o= =+Ex0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
