TACTICAL SHIFT BY WORKSTATION COMPANIES
Silicon Graphics Inc.'s plan to allow SGI graphics software to run on
Microsoft's Windows NT operating system provides new evidence that a
growing number of companies are giving up on Unix and instead
standardizing on Windows NT.  SGI hopes to be able to use its
experience in developing high-end graphics software without having to
spend a great deal of time building the underlying technology
represented by an operating system. (Washington Post  17 Dec 97)
