Aberdeen Group Forecasts Technical Workstation Market Rushing to Windows NT A new report from the Aberdeen Group finds that the technical workstation market is moving rapidly to Intel and Microsoft® Windows NT® Workstation solutions. The report highlights Windows NT workstation outperforming Unix workstations in power and display capabilities, as well as seeing many of the industry's leading technical and creative applications developing on Windows NT first with a concentrated push to develop-on-Windows NT in 1999. Report Summary: Aberdeen is hard-pressed to find any logical reasons for Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) to continue to develop key technical applications on the Unix platform. Aberdeen finds only a few niche environments that justify, in the long term, the purchase of traditional Risc/Unix workstations for use in technical computing environments. Aberdeen projects technical NT workstation unit shipments will increase from 800,000 to 2.2 million - expanding the total technical workstation market significantly. And UNIX technical workstation unit shipments will decline from 750,000 to 300,000. aberdeen.com Keithsha
