re: 486, 400,000 hits per day on web

It's not hard to swallow, Dave.  400,000 hits is only about five hits per
second (should be easy to do on a decent T1 line or better).  However,
what *is* hard to swallow is the thought there might be CGI involved in
that figure.  486 machines lose their minds quickly when confronted with
CGI.
