Our department is seeking justification for converting its ASCII terminals over to X-Terminals. Our past requests for X-terminals were not approved. The reasoning was: "Do you really need them? Will they really increase productivity? What's the pay-off?" Would anyone like to share their experiences with the change in productivity which he or she achieved by switching an ASCII terminal based software group to an X-terminal base? If possible, please detail with (1) the actual cost savings achieved by the conversion, (2) the type of applications used (please designate if they are X-only applications), (3) initial reasons for the conversion, and (4) the hardware environment for the X-window users. Please send your responses directly to me. I will summarize them and post to this group, if you give permission. Thank you.
