Does anybody know if AutoCAD will support X-windows in the near future?

AutoCAD gave a presentation at the June Xhibition describing the port
to DecWindows. However, I don't remember them saying they were going to
"product-ize" the work.

According to the list I have internally, it claims AutoCAD is available now
on DEC hardware; I was playing with it at Siggraph on a PMAX earlier this week.
But, as usual, you should really check with the horse's mouth...

AutoCAD for the DECStation 3100 will be available in the 4th Quarter of '89,
under DECWindows X. Next year, the other workstations we support (Sun, Apollo,
VAX, SCO Unix) should also have X as an option to the "native" window system.
