Hi, I would be very interested in finding out what the information that you received on the Sun vs. Dos Question. We are just in the process of doing these benchmarks but our focus in comparing AutoCAD on the IRIS Indigo vs. AutoCAD elsewhere and I'm interested in what benchmarks people deem important in comparing AutoCAD platforms and what results othe rpeople are getting for performance. john edelson sgi 2011 N Shoreline Blvd mtn view ca 94039 415 335-1532

John, So far no one has provided me with any hard numbers on Sun vs Dos. Everyone I have talked to says that Sun is faster but they have only described the differences in general terms. I deem regen time and plotting delays as important. Also overall effiency is very important but dependant on subjective factors such as comfort and ease-of-use.
