John,

I agree but you can't compare apples and oranges ...right ? I don't know that 
much about Amdahl nor am I trying give the Gentleman a hard time. But 
hexadecimal, excuse me? 

Circuits work with 1s and 0s and Assembler, Cobol, etc translate into machine 
code which is binary .....maybe I am over - reacting , if so I am sorry
