HP Vectra 38W20 PC's performance in both application- and component-leveltesting was due to the speed of its key components; HPdesigned memory cache gave the best performance in CPU- related processing such as with Lotus 1-2-3; the hard-disk sub- system, seek time less than 17 ms, meant a top score in data-intensive applications such as dBASE IV@ and Foxpro; and the integrated HP Super VGA video had the strongest performance in text and graphics functions.
