Title: Dollars and Cents

Description:  This web page contains a reevaluation the data and benchmarking
information of Infoworld's article called "32bit Desktop Operating Systems" 
found in volume 17, issue 46 November 13, 1995. 

It shows how Warp can be more cost-effective than Windows for Workgroups, 
Windows 95, and Windows NT.

It also contains a request for additional scenarios, that may be more
realistic in "real" world computing, so that a better "model" can be developed
to realistically understand data produced by benchmarking programs, and
understand how it relates to "real" world computing, and the impact it may
have on the user(s).
