They had several windows running on the console and it was quite a nice. The salesman said that would be available for release sometime in January but he wouldn't be more specific. He also mentioned that the price would be around $800 for the entire package (I guess he meant with the x-libraries). Since that was the only application running on a 25MHz 386 system, it was pretty fast. I would've like to see X-windows running on several other terminals, like the Sun River's, and see what kind of performance degradation occurs. Victor -- Victor I.
