[comp.sys.hp] HP graphics emulator for Mac SE-30

ramsay@jhunix.HCF.JHU.EDU (Glen Douglas Ramsay) (07/01/91)

   I'm searching for an HP graphics terminal emulator for my
Macintosh.  At work I have an HP9000 835 (HP-UX 7.0 presently)
with HP-98730 graphics running Starbase grapics.  At home I have 
a Mac SE-30 (multifinder 6.0 presently), and the two are communicating
via 2400 baud modems.  I have asked the comp.sys.mac.comm newgroup for their
opinons and received the following replies:

   Do you folks have any comments on the above products, or price/
availabilty info?  Are there any other products available?  I realize
that my SE-30 will never match the HP's performance, and that the
modems will limit throughput, but I still think that it would be nice
to be able to do graphics work at home.  Thanks in advance!
