To hopefully put a stop to the flood of mail and phone calls, I'd like to correct an omission from the previous annoucement of an X server for the PC/XT/AT. This implementation is X V10R4, with an upgrade to V11 planned once V11 stabilizes a little more and the bugs settle out (maybe V11R2).

Since the IDI X server for the PC is X.V10R4, I'd like to make sure that there is no confusion between it and our product. Cognition Inc. has been shipping PC/X, a PC/AT MS-DOS X10 server for over a year (it was originally bundled in with our MCAE product, but is now offered separately). A technical blurb describing it was published on the XPERT mailing list in January 1987, and has been reprinted here several times since. IDI's "PC-X Windows", although annoyingly similar in name, has no relation whatsoever to Cognition's PC/X.
