[I hope this is not considered too "commercial" for Usenet... I'm not trying to sell anyone anything - I'm merely trying to see what people think about Pivots and A/UX - it can only HELP those who have (or want to have) Pivots.] If you have a Radius Pivot Display (or are thinking of buying one), and you use (or will use) A/UX, I would appreciate it if you could answer the following questions and send your reply to "Radius.QA" on AppleLink or "lemke@radius.com" on Internet. If you have a Pivot, would you like it to work in landscape mode under A/UX? (No, this isn't a trick question... :-) Obviously, the best thing would be if it worked (flipped) under A/UX just as it does under Mac OS, but if you had a choice between using it in Portrait mode only (the way it currently is) or being able to at least boot in either mode (but not switch once you've booted), which would you prefer? If you don't yet have a Pivot, would you be more inclined to purchase one if you could use it in either orientation under A/UX? Even if you couldn't flip on the fly? Some background: Obviously, the ideal solution would be for us to make Pivot work under A/UX just as it does under Mac OS. However, there is a fair amount of work involved in making Pivot completely A/UX compatible, and we're not sure that there are that many people using Pivots under A/UX to make it worth all the work. I believe that there may be a possibility of at LEAST making Pivot work in landscape mode (if booted in that mode, but it wouldn't flip), but I need A/UX user responses to back me up for either case. So, tell me what you think! Any feedback will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Steve Lemke Engineering Q.A.
