It works pretty well on X >> terminals. This is not our experience. With NCD16's with 2.5 MB each performance simply isn't acceptable. Perhaps you are using a "better" X terminal, or an NCD configured differently? While we're at it, does anyone have any experience with two erstwhile competitors of Slate, namely, Clarity's Rapport and Applix's Asterix (a successor to Alis)? I've seen a demo of Asterix and have all the Rapport literature, but no real experience with either. Keith A. Lantz Voice: +1 415-324-8073 VICOR Inc.
