Paul, all I know is that for our department, each engineer (normally) has only one NT box. All of the HP workstations are in God knows where, but we access them through the NT Exceed application. So in other words, except for the office applications running in the background (Netscape, MS Outlook), our NT boxes just function as dumb UNIX terminals.

And given that my own NT box is still just a mere Pentium Pro, I don't think I'll be natively running any heavy-duty engineering apps anytime soon.

In the design centers (as opposed to the Fabs), it's pretty much the same. The standard office machine is an NT machine. Notebooks are the only exception as they run Win98 with an office suite.

In my group, the engineering machine (as opposed to the office machine) is either Win2000 or Win98 depending upon the project we're working on.
