Cute. As I understand it, HP is one of the first vendors to release X11. It was released at 3.0 for the Series 800. Stanley Tsu tsu@hplabs.hp.com Sometimes I wish that I could stop you from talking, when I hear the silly things you say. - Elvis Costello (via Bob C.)

> It's coming on Series 300 6.5 very soon. Software production starts pronto > and normal lead times through the pipeline apply. It was shipped at 3.0 on > Series 800. Just so it's clear: X11 has been available as a separate product for the Series 300 since late Fall (I don't know the exact dates of customer shipments). The 3.0 release on the 800 mentioned above I believe is also a separate product. With 6.5 on the 300 and 3.1 on the 800 (coming "soon" to a system near you), X11 will be bundled in with HP-UX. -- Chan Benson HP Fort Collins This posting is not an official source of information about HP products or intentions.

On Feb. 23 in response to the "X11 availibility" note, Chan Benson mentioned
that X11 would be bundled with HP-UX.
This note is to clarify the "bundling" of X11 with the next release of
HP9000 HP-UX. The next release is numbered HP-UX 6.5 for the Series
300 and HP-UX 3.1 for the Series 800.
X11 will be available for these machines as follows.
Series 300
""""""""""
X11 servers, clients and License-to-Use are shipped as part of
the HP-UX AXE product.
X11 programming libraries will be shipped as part of the HP-UX PE product.
Both of these are installed (if you desire) as part of the HP-UX
installation process.
Series 800
""""""""""
All SuperWorkstation bundles will continue to contain the entire X11
product.
X11 products B1155A..B1160A will continue to be provided for users of
Series 800 multi-user systems such as, HP825s, HP835s, HP840s,
HP850s and HP855s.

Disclaimer: The best plans can prove unworkable, I could be wrong,
but I doubt it :-).
P.S. The most noticeable new capabilities provided are:
Accelerated Starbase, GKS and Phigs within X11 windows
HP Window Manager - the windows manager selected by OSF/Motif, provides
Presentation Manager behavior and 3D appearance
New utilities to print screen dumps (color too)
