Let's say I'm just BARELY satisfied with the performance of X11R4 running on a SPARCstation 1+ with 8 bit color, or completely satisfied with the performance of X11R4 running on a Monochrome 33MHz 68030 Sun (a 3/460). What megapixel or better resolution PC video board/monitor and CPU will cut it, assuming I'm running SCO SVR3 or (more likely) Interactive SVR4? Assume 8Mb or more of RAM. And what about the same question, but using AUX on some Mac? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- David Smyth david@jpl-devvax.jpl.nasa.gov Senior Software Engineer, seismo!cit-vax!jpl-devvax!david X and Object Guru.

Assume 8Mb or more of RAM. Try the new 100 Mhz cpu we have. I think production quanities will be difficult to obtain. I know that the TSENG 4000 chip set has a unix driver writtine for it. |> |> And what about the same question, but using AUX on some Mac?
