I've been reading a lot of postings on NeWS vs. X. This has been a discussion of that feature vs this shortcoming and such. I'd like to get a feeling for a more practical measure. Working for an X-based vendor, I see a lot of software that is X-based, displayed at places such as the recent Xhibition conference at MIT. Is there a similiar trade show for NeWS ? What kind of NeWS-based products are available ? I could ask Sun (and have), but I'd also like to know about non-Sun based News products. Thanks, Jaime -- uucp: {atari, nsc, pyramid, imagen, uunet}!daisy!jaime arpanet: atari!daisy!jaime@ames.arc.nasa.gov

The phone number (to get on the mailing list) is 415-960-1300, e-mail to sun!users. Joining SUG is of course the preferred method for getting on the mailing list. -Barry Shein, ||Encore|| P.S.
