Washington D.C. Lab

Most magazines have a test lab that looks like our Washington D.C. facility: lots of Intel machines, racked and stacked, designed to be easily changed into whatever setup the editors need at a moments notice. But our Washington D.C. facility is only part of our labs. Here we perform state-of-the-art tests. We have lots of everything: Ethernet, Token Ring, and FDDI as the network infrastructure; and Windows NT and NetWare as the NOSs. Here we test application development tools, database middleware, messaging-oriented middleware, web middleware products, and more.
