Nice! Thank you for contributing.

It is interesting that the OZ-7600 BASIC card runs slightly faster for this benchmark than the PC-E500. I saw that a similar IQ-7700 for example runs 32,768Hz when the E500 runs at 2.3MHz (effectively though CPU instruction cycles take 3 clock cycles). So what is going on? The BASIC card has a CPU?

I wish I had the BASIC card. It seems unobtainable. I have a OZ-9500, which is nice, but can't do much with it.
