[net.micro.pc] WYSE 1000, micro-SPSS, Gosling EMACS Queries

I'm new to the net, and I'd like answers to the following:

(1) Does anybody have any experience with the Wyse-1000?  It's an IBM
PC workalike with decent published specs (8MHz 80186, 128K expandable
to 768K, 800 X 327 res with the graphics option) and I can get a real
good price on it.  I have a Wyse-75 terminal that I'm very happy with,
so I figure that the Wyse-1000 might be worth a try.  Any comments?

(2) How well does the micro-SPSS version work on the IBM PC? on the
DEC Pro?  How badly is it crippled compared with the last, pre-SPSSX
release?  Will it run on generic MS-DOS machines?

(3) Any info on the Gosling version of EMACS for the IBM PC?
