A choice of Intel's blazing Core 2 Duo or, um, blazinger Core 2 Extreme processors teams with Nvidia discrete graphics to rev up what Dell calls its most powerful portable workstation to date.

[August 28, 2007] AMD's New Line Includes 2GB DirectX 10 Card
AMD's graphics division (nee ATI) launches five workstation graphics cards ready for the latest Shader Model 4.0 applications -- and willing to free you from the job of tweaking software settings for them.

FEATURES

[May 23, 2005] CAD Models for the Masses: Universal 3D
Professionals use 3D workstations to create formidably rich renderings and detailed data files -- so rich, in fact, that they can't be viewed on the boss's or sales staff's everyday PCs.

[November 17, 2004] Orion Puts a Cluster on Your Desktop

[September 29, 2004] HP's Remote Workstation Access Promises "Just Like Local" Experience

BEST PRACTICES

[March 25, 2004] Aaron Reid: 3D Design Entrepreneur
By using a mix of portable and desktop workstation technology and a host of the latest animation software, Antigravity, a one-man design firm launched by Aaron Reid, is able to perform 3D design and animation work that rivals that of big firms.

[November 25, 2003] Crosspoint at a Crossroads
Crosspoint, a post-production firm based in Lakewood, Colorado, had to expand its editing and finishing capabilities to keep up with client demands in a fast-changing field. Its team of editors and animators, who deliver services to firms like Coors Brewing Company and McDonald's, need to serve up video spots faster than a batch of Super-sized fries, and that requires the right hardware--for the right price. Driven by the need for speed, Crosspoint chose to upgrade to Avid DS Nitris and HP xw8000 workstations.

[October 20, 2003] Tech Tools for Art Students
