At the end I noticed that the Standard used wasn't HURTS (HZ) but
Cycles Per Second.

Good For You!

BTW, last week I was sitting in the Doctors Waiting Room watching their Television set that showed medical shows on a closed channel when I saw
the local weather forcast showed it would be 11 Degrees that night.

I thought it was going to be really cold that night until later after
I left the Doctors Office and learned the Low Temperature for that night
was going to be in the Low 50's F.

I supposed the Forcast that I saw on the TV Set was in Fahrenheidt (sp?)
but it was Centigrade instead. BAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If that Private TV Channel had put a C after the Low of 11 I wouldn't had gotten so confused, and mentioned to others in the Waiting Room how Cold
it was going to be.

I read that as characters (bytes) per second. <shrug>

yup... especially since it is talking about bytes transferred ;)

but Cycles Per Second.

characters per second, actually...

thanks, i think :)

So did I, given that it was a data transfer rate, which was never measured in Hz (or cycles per second). But characters per second was very common back in the day.

Yeah, cycles per second/Hz doesn't really make sense for a data transfer rate.. I was familiar with characters per second.

Isn't it actually spelled Hertz?

The Persons name is spelled that way.
I read about Him in High School Physics Class years ago.

120 Volts A.C. 60 Cycles Per Second will give your fingers 60 Hurts A Second
if you hold the bare wires of a A.C. Line Cord that is plugged in to a wall socket.

When your CPU shocks you, on the other hand, it mega-hurts..

The CPU Clock runs in Mega-Hertz, the CPU runs on D.C. Power doesn't it?

Constant Hurts with D.C. Voltage instead of Alternating Hurts ? ? ??? ??? ? ?

It's the Alternating Ones That G-R-A-B-S You.
