So what is the price for 10 seats? Still no way for a centralized mainframe
solution? I'm afraid we're back again to the religious war how cheap must
a workstation be to compete against a pc standalone solution :-( .
And, don't forget the databases... they're growing. You now need to have
a CD ROM at each station, better three: One EMBL, one PIR, and one NCBI
drive.
