Instead of fancing maketing animation, maybe they ought to invest in stronger rods and pistons that don't slap.

DSL 3-4 Sec.

Sorry, Free Post
DSL loadup was almost instantaneous.
Interesting motor for sure.

Mac (H)Z:

Easy, I am not a computer expert, but the clip was loading/playing within seconds with little or no "jiggle" and seemed to be consistent with other video downloads that I do from time to time. To be honest, I did not watch the whole thing, just the first 60 seconds or so. Not trying to brag or anything, just enjoying DSL after so many years of dial up.

DSL in 3-4 seconds. Sure since the clip was 256kb/sec, you can stream it instead of saving it.

Differences: 3 valves and variable valve timing.
