What the Experts are Saying About HP Workstations

"I found things in HP software that you might not even know would impact workstation performance, but they had a substantial impact. I tell people, I have a performance tuner right on staff.  I don't have to pay him anything and he does great work."
-- Bill Case, IT Chief, Peter Basso Associates

"The CAD applications run better and faster on our HP workstations. It seems as though the speed has quadrupled. The programs run day in and day out without crashing, without hanging up, without any of the problems we used to have.”
-- Shaun Charles, Technology Director, Ridgway (Pa.) Area School District

"We needed 64-bit workstations and HP was the only hardware maker that had them. HP was thinking from the engineer's perspective and was clearly ahead of the pack. We had a lot of confidence in their ability to design a workstation that could handle heavy-duty design and manufacturing software applications."
--Jaxon Tate, IT systems support engineer, Toyota Racing Development

But on the SPECapc SolidWorks benchmark, which is more of a real-world test (and breaks out graphics, CPU, and I/O performance separately from the overall score), the results were even more surprising. The HP xw4600 was fastest in every category, completing the test in just over 167 seconds, nearly 9 percent faster than the previous top performer.
