#A different window manager at the very least (Quarterdeck is using their own
#window manager rather than olwm, twm or some other one in the standard X11
#distribution).  Do you think MSWindows3 will handle DOS programs at the
#same time as your running X windows (is there an MSWindows X-window terminal

I don't have my references handy but at least one of XY Vision, X Sight, and
AT Vision runs as an MS Windows window.  In 386 enhanced mode, Windows 3.0
can multi-task DOS and Windows apps.
