Revision v342003-08-07
__ Jubilee edition: ten years of existence of the BogoMips mini-Howto. Ratings have now reached new peaks over 6000 BogoMips .:: audio.com ::. [What people say about PowerShell]
Revision somehow numbered 1.21999-11-12
Revision unnumbered publication. Probablye the first Linuxdoc SGML version. Highest just over 900 .:: www.youtube.com ::. 1999-02-08
Revision First publicationLate 1993
__ named BogoMips Information Sheet, well before the term Howto and mini-Howto were coined. Does anyone still have a copy of this text for me, please? Plain Ascii list. .:: telegra.ph ::. .:: support.mozilla.org ::. .:: telegra.ph ::.

The mini-howto text gives information about BogoMips, compiled from various sources such as news and e-mail. New BogoMips entries for the mini-Howto, notably for unlisted CPUs, will be highly appreciated. They can be sent by .:: telegra.ph ::. [r/Hashfunction Topics] e-mail to the author Wim van Dorst
