[edit] hard coded delay

HP's market research found the users did not trust results obtained so quickly and so its engineers have introduced some delay in the code.^{[citation needed]}

I put it back because it's a good story (but of course wikipedia isn't here to propagate urban legends), and the template:fact tag is here to take it with a grain of salt, and asks for verification. --Marc Lacoste 09:40, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "redesigned from scratch"
