From a long time ago when a nano-second seemed near impossibly short. Mind you, it would seem one of the reasons your shiny, brand new, marvellous PC doesn't really seem faster is because the software gets bigger. Grace Hopper, grand old lady of computing and reputedly the first to use the term 'bug' properly in 1947. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grace_Hopper |

Surely the main difference between a nano and a micro-second is the spelling and pronunciation.

Watching that clip, I've just realized that my manhood is about a quarter of a nano-second.  |

No no, you've got it all wrong, the main difference between a nano second and a micro-second is the difference in getting to the bog and keks down without a mishap in time when suffering from Gandhi's revenge.   |
