A small correction. There is a substantial difference between the PC and
workstation versions of ARC/INFO. The GRID module (which implements all
of Dana Tomlin's Map Algebra concepts and turns ARC/INFO in both a vector
and a raster system) is only available on the workstation, dynamic
segmentation of line entities, massive changes in NETWORK, etc., are all
workstation only. The difference between the two macro languages (SML and
AML) is also massive. There are a lot of things you can do with the PC
version, but there are also lots of things you can't do and I do not expect
to see them incorporated in future releases.
