Read all abuot it: http://www.fcw.com/pubs/fcw/1999/0322/fcw-revGIS-3-22-99.html In a Mar 22, 1999 article by Patrick Marshal for Federal Computer Week he rates "Autodesk Inc.'s World 2.0, Caliper Corp.'s Maptitude 4.0, Environmental Systems Research Institute Inc.'s ArcView 3.1, Intergraph Corp.'s GeoMedia 2.0 and MapInfo Corp.'s MapInfo Professional 5.0." This news is a little more than a month old, but it's another source of online GIS product reviews that people are always asking about, and the versions reviewed are current. (Of course, MapInfo is going to leap ahead this June with the new major release, right?) I'm not sure that the five-hundredths of a rate means anything significant though. What it does say is that there really is no second place and whoever is going to be numero uno can't rest on their laurels anytime soon. The next nearest package was Maptitude with a 7.1 while the rest fell below 6. - Bill Thoen ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, send e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and put "unsubscribe MAPINFO-L" in the message body, or contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
