Does anyone know where I can get a fast(er) X11R3 server for colour suns
3/60, 3/160, SunOS3.5. We need more speed than the Purdue speedups give
and we'll even consider a (gasp) comercial package. I talked to sun,
but they said their version isn't shipping yet. Sorry if this has
aleady been discussed, I haven't read this newsgroup for the past few months.
Thanks,

Thanks to all who responded to my request for info on fast(er) XV11R3
servers for colour suns. montnaro@sprite.crd.ge.com pointed me to
International Quest Corp., Santa Clara, CA (408-988-8289). They claim
to have an optimized R3 server for sun3/4/386i under Rel4.0. The
package includes their own window manager and goes for $995 per cpu
($845.75 educational places). Has anyone tried this system? I'd like to
hear of anyone's experience with it before we pop such big bucks!
Thanks again,
