If I were to give up A/UX, going to just sys 7, what would replace the
ability to have multiple windows (command shell) with varying fonts/pt sizes,
logged into various machines?

I could use MacX/xterm, but then I would have to first telnet to each host
(via say Versaterm) and then fire up an xterm, seems like a pain.  Versaterm
alone won't allow multiple windows (or at least I can not get it to open them,
though it uses the telnet tool just fine for one).  And while I am on the
subject, VersaTerm also only goes up to a 12 pt font.  I like to use
18 pt courier in a 40 line window.  Not exactly vt100ish, but in the
A/UX command shell it works like a charm, and I can have N of them with
different sizes and fonts (i.e. a 130 column 12 pt, etc) what Mac app
will give me this?.

p.s.
  I have to plans to drop A/UX, but since rlogin is about all I do these
  days that is unix-ish, I was wondering what the world would be like
  if I went to just sys 7.
