Joe also wrote: : Checking the web site (http://www.byte.com/art/9511/sec9/sec9.htm), you'll : find that they tested MicroStation, PhotoMorph, and their own ByteMarks as : the three applications. No comparison was made under photomorph or Microstation between a P5 or P6 box and a PPC604 box. So how does the article support your assertion from part 1 above? Under which commercial app, (hell, not even apps) did Byte compare PPC604 and P6? The "Commercial version" of Bytemarks? Joe, you've got a serious problem if you have to start justifying Bytemarks as a commercial app. I think that you're the one who got it "wrong-o"
