I tried driving a Porsche once, but by the time I could get up to
45 MPH in that crummy first gear, the darned RPM dial was already
in the red zone; well, I told the dealer that they'd better go
engineer that thing a little bit better if they want to sell any :)

How are those efficient & friendly IBM mainframes doing these days?
