Here are the results to my informal NeWS usage survey: > I would like to conduct an informal survey to find out > how many people are using NeWS on a regular basis, and on what > platforms. I am interested in how many people are using NeWS > in your organization, and the manufacturer, model number and > operating system of the platform which you run it on. If you > would like to respond for your entire organization, please indicate > this, so that I can watch for other members of your organization > responding also. I will summarize and post the results to the > net in a few weeks. I received a total of 39 responses, representing ~194 users. Most of those who responded reported 3-5 NeWS users at their site, with a maximum concentration of 20 NeWS users at one site (a university). Of the 39 responses, 20 were from commercial organizations, 12 were from universities, and 7 were from government agencies. Most of the respondents (34) use NeWS on Suns, 5 use MacNeWS on Machintoshs, 5 use 4Sight on Silicon Graphics IRISs, 2 use NeWS/2 on PS/2s, 1 uses a Raster Technologies machine, and 1 uses a HP machine. It is evident that a number of the respondents (25%) regularly use NeWS on multiple platforms. Thanks to all those who responded.
