Is everyone sure that this HOWTO is not a work of fiction sort of 
like that report on the computer virus that will cause your 
motherboard to catch fire and burn down your house in the middle of 
the night?

As I understand Zend is a compiler/interpreter that uses a optimised 
bytecode to run a little faster than the normal apache/php. It shares 
few of the features of perl, even fewer of Java. C++? Last time I 
checked, PHP couldn't do OOP. Next thing we know it will be as 
efficient as assembler and as object oriented as SmallTalk.
