<graphics, computer> A workstation specifically configured
for graphics works such as image manipulation, bitmap
graphics ("paint"), and vector graphics ("draw") type
applications. Such work requires a powerful CPU and a high
resolution display.
A graphic workstation is very similar to a CAD workstation
and, given the typical specifications of personal computers
currently available in 1999, the distinctions are very blurred
and are more likely to depend on availability of specific
software than any detailed hardware requirements.
