Why not speed up your computer?  PC-ZIPPER is software that will do     
exactly that without sacrificing performance.  The speed of a PC, XT, AT
or even a 386 (and their clones) is rather arbitrarily determined by the
manufacturer.  In actuality, if all the memory in your computer is sound
there is no reason why you can't be running a little faster.  And who   
doesn't want to run a little faster?                                    
                                                                        
Ziptest is the first of two programs that come with PC-ZIPPER.  This    
utility calls procedures, executes a routine, times it, and then        
records the results.  Upon completion, Ziptest checks to find which     
procedure resulted in an increase in processor speed.  The results      
create a curve which the optimum system performance is at the "crest"   
of the curve. Zip the main program, can then be set to maximize the     
speed of your computer                                                  
                                                                        
If you didn't understand all that then just believe it works.           
PC-ZIPPER increased the speed of this reviewer's AT by nearly one full  
MHz according to Landmarks Speed test (note that no speed testing       
software is included with PC-ZIPPER).  You don't have to understand it  
to use it--it's easy to install and control even for the beginner.      
PC-ZIPPER will check for weak or faulty memory, it can be turned off    
without rebooting, and it can even be used to slow your computer        
slightly.  And, best of all, it uses NO memory.
