    I am trying to justify the purchase of workstations for each
programmer at this site.  Does anyone have any studies that show how
much a workstation can increase productivity for a programmer?

   By workstation, I mean a computer with a high resolution monitor with
some sort of windowing environment and the ability to do more than one
thing at a time (multi-tasking).  Examples of this are the Sun 3/50 and
Apollo DN3000 systems. 

    Thanks in advance,
