Concluding the SYSmark 98 suite tests under NT with a handful of business/office applications, the same conclusion can be made as before, as long as a CPU has access to a fast L2 cache you'll have no problem running just about any application of this nature on the planet. Once again, the K6-III shows off its strength under NT, and the Celeron gives the Pentium II/III some hefty clock for clock competition. By now we are all used to what the Athlon has to offer, it is clearly the fastest performer out of the bunch.
