Instead, they are able to spendvaluable engineering time taking advantage of the advanced featuresavailable on the SPARC platform.Using Latitude ensures reduction of one-third to one-half of thedevelopment time normally associated with a ground-up implementation of aMacintosh code base on a UNIX platform.
