Hi netters: I am thinking about buying a Mac II (not fx). I would like to use it for networking. Currently I use a Mac Plus and Versaterm to connect to a terminal server from where I could get to any internet location. I also use an IBM RISC6000 for some of my applications which is also connected to the terminal server. All my connections use a 9600 baud setting. My querry has to do with using the X-windows on the RISC6000. Could it be possible for me to use a MacX or similar emulator on my new Mac II and communicate with the RISC and take advantage of its multi window capability ? In the long run I would be on an ethernet but I would like to purchase the Mac II and the necessary software soon. I do not plan to use any graphic applications until I get the ethernet. Is MacX a public domain program ? Are there any good commercial source for such a program ? Thanks in advance. -- Tharappel C.
